TLC’s Version of Our Turkey Trot

Tuesday nights are a big night on TV for me because both Biggest Loser and American Idol are on.  Usually I record them both and watch BL in “real time” and afterwards watch my recorded AI episode… but after I watched BL, I got side-tracked by a show that TLC was doing on our neighboring town… about 7 miles away…where Dave and I lived when we first got married… and where he went to school all his life:  Yellville - the home of the Turkey Trot and Turkey Calling Contest. 

But TLC was actually showcasing the two pageants that accompany the Turkey Trot… “Miss Turkey Trot” and “Miss Drumsticks”.  (Yep, you guessed it… they vote for the girl with the best legs.)

All I can say is bless our hearts…

If I was going to be in that contest, I would want to hold up something in front of my face, too!

That's great! I have been to Yellville before. I went to a friend's wedding in Mountain Home. We stopped at a restaurant called the Front Porch. The food was so good. We picked up a friend in Yellville to go to the wedding with us. I think he is still there and is a lawyer. It is a small world. When I went to college one of the girls across the hall in the dorm was from Flippin. Good people in Flippin.

I had no idea this was going on. Thanks for putting this out there. I couldn't show off my legs now for sure. I would be covering my face too.
