The toughest job I ever had…

In honor of my son's second day as a commercial roofer, I want to hear about the toughest job you ever had.

I'm giving away North Idaho Fair tickets for those with the most impressive stories!

Toughest job Fair ticket winners in no particular order:

Jen: Kindergarten teach and mom. (Thanks for sparing us the potty accident stories)

Lastdemoinidaho: Forest Service and Job Corps Center (Yikes!)

ManlyPointer: Hay bale buckaroo (I tried to lift a hay bale once, they are heavy) and

Eyes&Ears: Law enforcement: (Thanks for keeping your community safe)

An honorable mention for Jeanie. (You can still get your tickets if you aren't too scarred).

You can pick up your Fair Tickets at the Cda SR office. Limit 4 per person.
