I judged the Nebraska State Fair this past weekend and saw this man with his geese. The geese are in the parade every day and walk around the fair with him during the day. I am assure you my geese would not do this at a fair :)

Cute.

My geese follow me around and come when they are called. I don't think they would do it at a fair, but they seem to be easy to train, and they are easy to herd.

I know that in times past, flocks of geese were herded out to pasture and herded to market.

These geese were actually so calm and content even with the large crowds it was actually pretty impressive. I got there Friday evening and that is the first time I saw them. They were bringing in the big draft horses and wagons for the arena show and the geese were walking by them and it did not even phase them. I know whenever I see a team of 8-10 big Percherons or Clydesdales it makes me stop and look. All I know is if I tried to dress up my Chinas and let them loose at the fair it would bring a whole new meaning to a wild goose chase!!!!!!! LOL.

Mine do that, too. My lead gander is my "foreman" and will "Take them out" and "Bring them in".

That's something! I think about half of my Buffs would actually do that -but not in costume. I'd give a costume about 10 seconds, assuming someone was brave enough to try dressing one. LOL! While I personally disagree with dressing them up, it never ceases to bring me joy to see geese publicly depicted in a positive light. There's far too little of that.

The joy a traveler offer feels after purchasing cheap airplane tickets and discount hotel rooms often dims if his or her luggage does not arrive at his destination Jordan 11 (http://www.clickmanufacturingjobs.com/jordanretro11.html).




The following is what should be done if you find yourself in this situation:
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* After determining your checked bags have not arrived go directly to the airline's baggage services department Cheap Jordans (http://www.prarthana.com/cheapjordans.html).
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* Pull out your baggage tags which the airline will need to track your missing bags Coach Outlet (http://www.kumarandresses.com/coachoutlet.html).
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* Be prepared to answer questions about your luggage color Nike Foamposite (http://www.clickretailjobs.com/nikeshoes.html), brand and type Christian Louboutin Outlet (http://www.gemspin.com/christianlouboutin.html).Â* You should mention any other distinguishing features www.indira-industries.com/foamposites.html (http://www.indira-industries.com/foamposites.html), such as a brightly colored strap or distinctive tags Nike Free Run (http://www.mrf-exports.com/nikefreerun.html).
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* The airline employee will give you a reference number Kobe Bryant Shoes (http://www.abacusnow.com/kobebryant.html).Â* You will be given a phone number to call to check the status of your luggage as well as a baggage tracking website Michael Kors Handbags (http://www.dmeindia.net/michaelkors.html).Â* Typically customers are able to get more information by calling the airline phone number.
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* Ask the airline representative if the airline will give you money to purchase essentials, such as a change of clothes and toiletries until your bags show up.Â* Most airlines will not offer this unless you ask.
·Â*Â*Â*Â*Â*Â* Check the airline's tracking website and call the airline directly every day to get an update on your lost luggage.Â* You may find that your bag has arrived at your destination airport but no one has bothered to call and let you know.
