Judy Larson has a big voice and an even bigger personality, and she needs it to deal with Clydesdales that tower over her by three feet.  Together with her husband Cal, Judy operates a Clydesdale farm near Ripon.  Wisconsin Life traveled there to see one of the shows they put on for the public and to learn how a couple born into suburban luxury ended up raising giant horses.
