Fair Fun
Last week I went to the Orange County Fair...
There was lots of crazy food. Burgers with Krispy Kreme donuts as buns. Bacon covered pickles. Deep fried whatever. You know, the usual. As for me, I decided I just wanted a huge hot dog...
I'm boring that way.
We started off in the craft area. I've been contemplating making a shawl. I found some inspiration...
And someone really knows how to felt...
The first time I walked right by this frog purse. I only noticed it on my second pass...
We also perused the jewelry makers, the wood workers, and the visual arts. There were some talented artists and photographers judging by the works displayed.
Eventually we made it outside. (It wasn't the hottest day of the week that we went. It was probably the second hottest, however.)
I felt sorry for this pig...
She just kinda looks miserable. The sign behind her said she was due on July 30th (less than a week from when we went), so she's very pregnant. And it was hot. But by now she should be feeling a whole lot lighter.
Then we hit collections. Someone had taken selfies with a bunch of sports heroes. As I'm not a sports aficionado, none of the faces were familiar to me. Although I did like the autographs from the Star Wars stars.
In the same building were the plant displays. This one made me think of Pam...
Do you have any old shoes hanging around...?
And then we were on our way out...
I lucked out and didn't get sunburned. That's what happens when I remember the sunscreen. Yay!
When does your local area have a county fair? (LA County's fair is in September. [I live in LA County but I'm near the border with Orange County. OC's fair is closer.] We always hear about it because the commercials are brilliant.)
