What is the fare for the fair?

It was that time of year again.

The county fair was upon us.

We didn't have anything to enter this year.
We did have a 4-H stand to operate this year with only my family running it.

The fare for my attendance at the fair is hard work and sleep deprivation.

The fair was expanded by one day to accommodate an extreme truck and tractor event.

 *** SIGH ***

(Yes, there seems to be a whole lot of sighing going on here lately!) 


That is pretty much what it looks like.  It sounds like a herd of rabid chainsaws gone wild.


Pork burgers with their crispy edges are a staple around here!

Friday night was the regular truck pull.  

Decent crowd and another late night. 


And Bullet the fish (which was dead in the morning).

Saturday night . . . . . . . 

DEMOLITION DERBY

I secretly would LOVE to be able to take a lemon car or two that I have owned and enter it only to be able to smash it to smithereens!  I believe that desire how this event must have gotten started.


Along with this event and to witness it came some friends, more fair toys and more food.

 
EVERYONE NEEDS TO TRY A FRIED OREO!

Really.  You do.  THEY ARE GOOD!


One soggy Mr. Croissant out gunned by a smaller gun and gunner.



Good night fair lady!

You at least weren't crabby like me the next day!
