Today the West Hardin Ag Mechanics hosted their annual “Trailer Build-off”.
To me it is an amazing thing to arrive in the morning and see a pile of STUFF that I cannot identify and machines and tools I have no idea what they are… and hours later they have created these beautiful trailers.
These young people have skills and talent that will carry them far in life.
What always comes to my mind is that before they apply for their first college, they are already equipped to make a good living while supporting a family.
This is hard work and all these teams make it look easy!!
West Hardins senior team took FIRST place while our Junior team took THIRD place!!
Woooo-Hoooo!!
This was no easy task… I believe there were TWELVE teams… I am sure I will miss a few but they were Troup ISD, Junction ISD, Bremond ISD, East Chambers ISD, Central ISD, Shelbyville ISD, Liberty ISD, Madisonville ISD, Newton ISD, Anahuac ISD and of course West Hardin. (Plus two that I am forgetting but not intentional)
Congratulations to all these students for an amazing show of workmanship and skill!!
Congratulations to West Hardins teams… I have no doubt because of their knowledge, skills, talent and wisdom that Mr. Merrifield has shared they each will be a GREAT success.
Congratulations to Mr. James Merrifield.… yall all are winners!!
God is so GOOD!!

I stayed for a few minutes of the Girls game tonight vs Colmesneil.
It was great seeing Coach Hardy and the reaction from students throughout the gym.
It made me reflect back on my school years… you can have GREAT teachers that teach and build your knowledge and skills but teachers that builds your knowledge and skills while building YOU up at the same time are always unforgettable!!
Guillott#999765 has broke out of jail and possibly headed to some location looking for popcorn balls.
Officer Tristynn Martin in Hot Pursuit.
Everyone can rest easy tonight. Thanks to Officer Martin the Escapee has been captured.
This dangerous criminal was apprehended with numerous amounts of popcorn balls!!
Seriously, this has been an amazing day from beginning to end.
City-Folks just don’t know what they’re missing… every stop was filled with a lifetime of memories!!
TRICK or TREATING at its best!!
I loved so much seeing all the “littles” and the “bigs”… the smiles and anticipation of what was next tickled me. The hayrides and trailers piled full of children, parents, grandparents and fur-babies Where else but our Batson!!
Amy Enloe yall Cotton Candy hit the spot. I hit Tristynn’s bag at the next stop!! (Yes, I am that kind of Gammy!! Big Grin
I know everyone contributes in their own special way but I must give a shout-out to Sherry, Rip, their beautiful family and all that makes the popcorn balls and Rip’s hotdogs a success. They were amazing as always and it was the only time I got out of the trailer for treats!!
God Bless you all!!
(I would like to add that I was captured by the most beautiful officer ever and she did confiscate my popcorn balls.
I were given the extras by our beautiful Sherry and her comment as I was walking away was “Take those extras and maybe you can trade them for cigarettes” Bigger Grin!!
God is so good!!
