So many people getting ready to take thier animals, produce, crafts,
baked goods, preserves, photos, flowers, sewing and the list goes on.
Oh the memories of when I was growing up and how we would go
school clothes shopping the week before the fair so that we would
have good clothes to wear Fair week. I was involved in 4-H back
then and my bothers were invloved in FFA. That was many years
ago. So many ribbons won back then but since they have been mis-
placed and lost.
Tomorrow everyone will have thier perspective placing in the
catagories with thier ribbons attached so everyone can see who is
the best of show, and the smiles and happiness in those who have
won a ribbon for all thier hard work.
So today I begin with the produce that will be on display and
where it all started on some farm.
An Onion Field. We will find some of these on those famous Space Burgers we all love so much |
Wheat Field for some of those baked goods that will be judged and the Elephant ears that we will be eating. |
Corn Stalks in Field Where i'm sure that not only will some be judged but we will be eating some corn at the Fair too. |

I haven't been to a fair in YEARS!! But I have some really good memories of it too. That's the joy of growing up in a small town I guess. (Not all was good though. I remember my mom making us wait in line to see the "Goat man"!!! Seriously mom???!! LOL)
Goat man???? We went almost every night depending on who was the entertainment. I've seen Buck Owens, Freddy Fender, Glen Cambell,
Dottie West, Kenny Rogers, Tammy Wynette, Los Lonely Boys, Loverboy, U 2, Toto, Bare Naked Ladys, and the list goes on. My mom was into country music and my dad was into the demolation derby. Oh but what memories.
