			It 
			has been a fantastic week at the Illinois State Fair for two young 
			ladies from Logan County. Sisters Claire and Ella Bobell both 
			participated in the swine division shows as the fair and both came 
			out champions. Claire won the Illinois State Fair Grand Champion 
			Barrow with her hog, and Ella won the Land of Lincoln Grand Champion 
			Barrow with hers. 
			Above, the girls share a big hug. 
			Perhaps this is the moment they realized that they were both big 
			winners, and both would be in the Governor's Sale of Champions on 
			Tuesday evening.
