Honey, jam, and jelly. Look at all those ribbons!

Hopefully they slow down in school zones.

My focus for much of the day: Choosing a funnel cake stand.

A blue ribbon winner! Wouldn't that make a great quilt?

Games on the midway! Everyone wins!

Aww, the judges are suckers for kitty cats, too!

I love that some kid put so much time into making a poster of an egg.

Another fair delicacy: Fresh-cut fries!

No visit to the fair is complete without a look at the "freak" vegetables. This oddity beat out a double zucchini and a potato that grew around a spoon to win the first place ribbon.

I remember we (my family ) used to go to the State Fair every year. They had it out at the fairgrounds which is now a venue for rock concerts, etc. I think the fair is in the middle of the state now. We had the fair because we were the state capital- even though we are in the northwest part of the state, if you look at a map, and quite urban. I loved the animal exhibits and the rides and the food ( eating it). We probably saw the quilts and canning- but we might not have. The fair is a happy memory for me.
Later this happy September memory became the Greek Festival- it was around my mother's birthday and she loved it, even though she wasn't Greek, all the food and fun and dancing and the sweets,- we would buy one of each variety.
Your fair looks like fun. I'm glad you had fun.
