We arrived around 10:30AM so we would have time to look around before the rides stared at noon. The kids consist of Trace, Chelsea, Cassidy, Haily and Me. As we walked by the fire station they toy fire truck squirted water at Wayne, he acted like he was going to hit it with his cane and the little fire truck ran for the barn. First stop was at the cow barn, while there we found some baby pigs all in a row. Look close at the second pix and you will find a boy curled up sleeping with his cow. The rest are just random shots.
The 4H and commercial building is always a favorite way to kill time while waiting for the carnival to open. Quilts were many and all so very different. Sing read "Metal figure made from found material. Cutter guard, metal table leg, ball bearings and misc metal parts rust for color he is "Fred" Bounty Hunter". Next we have a giant Farris wheel made by a 10 year old boy. The torso is made of medal and jewelry, Minnie Mouse, flowers and Indian maiden figurines....and canning, baking, sewing and all kinds of things not shown. You will have to find an fair in your area and see all the wonders of our kids today.
Here are kids mutton busting, the rules are you can not weigh over 50lbs, no age requirement and the ages this year ranged as young as 3 and as old as 8. This is just one rider a little girl, quite young. She did quite well, click on the pix and it will enlarge and click it again it will enlarge again, just encase some did not know...
Check "send gas money" to see the ride pictures. But I wanted to tell you what rides I went on with the kids. Viper, Ring of fire, Swings, Windsurfer, 1001 Nights, Super Shot, Hay Wire and Big Farris wheel. Not sure how many more years I will still do this, or how many more years the kids will let me go..... Hailey laughed at me and told me I was a "crazy woman" I liked that!!
It was all in all a good time.......B
