In search of news and cheese curds

By ANN MARIE AMES ( Contact ) Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 9:05 a.m.

I did some sweet talking yesterday afternoon and convinced my editors to let me write a story about the World Dairy Expo.

I'm heading to Madison this afternoon. Among other things, I plan to talk to the staff at the Janesville based Waikato Milking Systems USA. I also will be looking for other local faces, businesses and cattle.

When I went to sleep last night, I must have been very excited about the pending trip. I had a dream last night that cops and courts reporter Ted Sullivan was judging the Expo. He was asking for my help placing a class of heifers.

While that would be fun, I think I'll stick to writing a story and dragging the intern through the barns. I'm a lot better at those things than at judging.

I'll second that one on Decatur Dairy! They have the best cheese around. My grandaughter loves the string cheese-she always checks right away when she comes to see if its in the fridge!!
