The Fair

No where else can you eat a corn dog, chocolate chip cookies in a cup, a bacon cheeseburger, a strawberry smoothie, mini doughnuts, and salt water taffy.

I'm telling myself I burned it all off walking a gazillion miles around the fair grounds. ;-)

First on our trip - the Hall of Law and Flame, devoted to the police officers and fire fighters of Iowa. There we saw a map of the Parkersburg tornado. Those who have been following my blog forever may remember it from these posts.



Couldn't resist a photo of the in-house ShamWOW guy. Heee hee!


And the DNR building of course. Stop looking at me swan! (name that movie)

Antique tractors were everywhere.

These folks are good friends of my parents. They own draft Belgian draft horses. I didn't get a chance to visit with them because they were getting ready for a show. I did run into a guy I graduated high school with who, coincidentally, also shows Belgians at the fair.
