Though it canrsquot be provenitrsquos a safe bet that Mocha a6-year-old goat owned by TrevorMoser Elkader holds the recordfor the most kids born to thesame nanny Since her rst groupof babies known collectively asa tribe or trip was born in 2010she has had 18 kids With the ex-ception of March 2012 she hashad multiples May 2011 twobucks two does (or nannies) April 2011 three bucks 1 doeMarch 2012 1 buck April 2013two bucks two does and March2014 one buck ve does

ldquoItrsquos not uncommon for goats to have multiplesrdquo saidTrevor ldquoAnd if they start withtwo or three they tend to havethat many each time they givebirth Irsquom not sure Irsquove everheard of a goat giving birth to

From a demo derby to bullriding from country music toclassic rock by a local favoritethe entertainment venue ofthe 2014 Clayton County Fairhas something for everyone

The rst big event is Thursday July 31 at 830 pm when country crooner Josh Thompson takes the stageKnown for his modern blendof country and Southern rock Thompson is quickly becom-ing a fan favorite from Maineto Washington and all pointsin between His live showshave earned him a solid fanbase and the respect of otheracts who follow his openinglead Thompson has opened

for artists like Brad PaisleyEric Church Justin Moore andLynyrd Skynrd

Thompsonrsquos debut albumldquoWay Out Hererdquo containedpowerful Top 20 tunes like theamped-up ldquoBeer on the Tablerdquoand the prideful title track Hismost recent album producedunder a new label subtly in-corporates new sonic elements ndash pulsing electronic soundsan old-school clavinet drum-machine beats and a gang vocalor two But not so many thatthey overwhelm the core ofthe songs

ldquoTherersquos a lot of overdubsounds kind of track-y beatsthat do create an ambianceand ow through this record to give it some unityrdquo Thompsonsaid ldquoBut the most importantpart of music is the breath you know ndash the air the spaceWhen that gets too muddiedup I start to have a problem with it When it adds thenthatrsquos greatrdquo

One other notably freshaspect to the album is Thomp-sonrsquos voice He pushes the up-per limits of his register nim-bly projecting condence even

as he hits the most vulnerableparts of his audio persona Thompson grew up in

Wisconsin sliding into the con-struction business at the ripeold age of 12 and expecting thatthe rest of his life would be builtaround pouring concrete indriveways and oce buildings

But his focus got derailed whenhe hit 21 He bought a guitar asan o-hours distraction and itsoon became a 247 obsessionHe moved to Nashville in 2005 worked construction to pay thebills but ultimately decided to give music a full-time try

Josh Thompson has foundhis own freedom He does whathe does just because itrsquos who heis And Turn It Up is an albumintended for people who want toamplify their individuality

ldquoItrsquos drive fast turn it uploud and party wild you knowYou own your life so letrsquos get af -

ter itrdquo Thompsonrsquos performance is

Re-create fair avors at homeOne of the great things

about the county fair is all of thefun foods available there Andsince much of the time spentthere is spent walking the ex -tra calories are justied rightRightmdashif you plan on walkingan extra 15 miles to work o abag of cotton candy or 3 miles tokeep that funnel cake from nd-ing a place on your hips

Big portions with lots ofsugar and fat calories character-ize many of the foods we tradi-tionally eat at fairs and carnivalsFor many of us attending thefair wouldnrsquot be nearly as muchfun without these tasty treatsSo how much exercise does ittake to walk o our favorite fair

foodsWe burn approximately 100

calories by walking one mile sohere are the distances we needto walk to burn o the calo-ries contained in some of ourfavorite midway indulgencesCaramel applemdash3 miles largecorn dogmdash45 miles cottoncandymdash15 miles funnel cakemdash 3 miles 32 oz soft drinkmdash25miles sno-conemdash25 miles andsoft pretzelmdash3 miles

Does this mean we needto load our picnic basket withcarrot and celery sticks beforeheading to the fair No Witha little planning itrsquos possible tot in many favorite fair foodsHerersquos how

Quench your thirst with asmall soft drink instead of largeBetter yet drink water

Split foods among severalpeople For example share alarge funnel cake with friendsNo one gets overloaded yet ev-eryone gets a taste

Plan times to sit down andeat rather than graze from oneend of the fair to the other

Limit yourself to one treatChoose reasonable serving sizesof lower sugar and fat foods

Vendors have becomemore aware of fair-goers desireto avoid a steady diet of fattyfoods The St Paulrsquos food standfor example oers fruit and vegetable cups

If want to recreate the a- vor of fair food at home hereare a few recipes to get youstarted Wersquove included recipesfor corn dogs with a rich butter-

milk batter old-fashioned funnelcakes and kettle corn
