Frogtown,USA.....Each year wine growers and makers enter their “spirit”ual creations into the Calaveras County Fair. The wine must be produced from grapes grown or made in Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Mariposa, Nevada, Placer, Sierra, Tuolumne or Yuba counties. A large group of judges sample all of the entries and judge the amateur wines based on appearance, aroma, taste, etc. A Danish system of judging is used, meaning the wines are judged against a standard rather than against each other. Private blind tasting is used, and gold, silver and bronze medallions are offered per class. A Best of Show is chosen for an amateur white wine and a red wine.

Posted by: Kim_Hamilton on 05/23/2011 12:39 AM
Frogtown, USA....The 2011 International Frog Jump took place in Angels Camp, Calaveras County California under sunny skies, amidst great crowds, and closed with a cliff-hanger result. Early frog jockey leader Pablo Rodriguez, of "Team Green", had an incredible 19 foot 8.5 inch jump by his frog Emily. Dozens of frogs and frog jumps later, it all came back to "The Bozos" frog jumping team, as Kevin Daly of Carmichael California had his frog "It's Cheaper to Leap Her" put in a 20 foot 4 inch jump to win it at nearly the end of the day's jumping.....
Action shots of Kevin Daly and his frog are here.
Complete photos of the 2011 International Frog Jump will follow.
