It's fair time!

And you know what that means...

ferris wheels

and food on a stick!

But as it happens...

...we tried something new this year.

Instead of the state fair, we went to the county fair.

Slightly smaller scale, but very fun!

With all the tractors, animals and creative stuff

but not quite the crowd.

Of course there were a couple of rides

thrown in for good measure.

But my favorite part was the turn of the (20th) century town

that was so interactive for the kids.

They actually did manual labor

without coercion.

This year, there was even a food I had never seen before...

Spaghetti Sundaes...

With truffles instead of meatballs!

Heavenly.
