BIS award for the UARC Angora Specialty in Mineral Wells

Click photo to read certificate and see detail of lacework in pure angora shawl.

The UARC Angora Specialty was held in Mineral Wells, WV today. We had a nice turnout - 10 people entered angoras in all 4 breeds. I was the only one showing Satin Angoras. Judge Terry Fender shocked me by awarding Best in Show to my colored SR doe, Somerhill Mandalay. This was Mandy's 3rd leg, too, so she has finished her championship. Yippee!

I took some photos of the show, and will write more later and post them, too.
