Last Sunday was a gorgeous day for a fair. We didn't think it would be busy, as it was Sunday and we were heading there kinda late.
WRONG!!! It had rained, a nasty thunderstorm with tornado warnings on
Saturday...it took us over 30 minutes just to get to the field for
parking....
We ate some things and saw some animals, walked around a bit and left after about an hour or so...we don't do rides....well I enjoy rides, but the Hubs, not so much....
We saw lots of chickens....the Hubs likes chickens....raised them....
Look...a Halloween chicken! The last one is the Hubs favorite - Barred Rock...(I think)
There were some goats and a couple llamas...but very cool..there were baby Jacob Sheep! The Jacob is my favorite sheep! And the only one I can identify on sight (well who couldn't?)
Twins!
So that was about it.....Goodies?? yes, we bought goodies....
Three skeins of local Corriedale..think it'll be a hat....some local soap (the Hubs is a soap aficionado) There was a book seller, so got this at 50% off....and of course, my favorite beef jerky from Nodine's. The Hubs also purchased kettle corn....
Our shadows, on the way back to the car.....

I haven't been to a good fair in awhile...well, a year, really. Last year's Wisconsin Sheep & Wool festival in Jefferson, WI. This year, I missed it because we moved :(
Maybe again someday...it's quite grand :)
SO glad you got kettle corn! At the fair I always search out the best sausage sandwich with lots of peppers and onions (so I can remember it a looooong time!!) and some kettle corn or the hubby's choice, taffy! Oh, and he very much likes maple cream if there is a booth somewhere set up from a maple place. Fairs are so fun!
