Here We Go
At this point, I would like to recognize Gerard's #1 fan, our very own David Low. Two-year-old David was enthralled by his visits to the pen, repeating "Big Pig," "Bless You, Pongo" (when anyone, not just Pongo the pig, sneezed), and "Rusty Scratch" (after seeing the 600 pound Rusty scratch his leg vigorously on the post in his pen). David Low, pig fan extraordinaire!
Just a few hours now before it goes down.
