I put the finishing touches on the pictures for the Memory Lane presentation but it's too long!!!! I have somewhere around 210 pictures. A good show has to be less than 100. I piked up a Sim card for the unlocked European phone I bought and will transfer our home number to this phone. Then I can transfer it to Google. This will cost a little money but we don't want to lose our home number. We had soup at home then left for the State Fair at around 1. We had some trouble finding close in parking but eventually scored a front row spot. We spent tons of time walking the fair, almost 4 hours, leaving there at 5. The horticulture was our first stop. I fell in love with the Dahlias, they are really beautiful. We need more of those in our garden. Next stop was the village of yesteryear where we liked a wood carver who makes toys with a scroll saw. We bought some fudge in the craft building then bought some chickpea fries with curry sauce opposite the church restaurants. Next stop was the art which is my favorite stop in the fair. Before going in we did the Goodness grows tent where I discovered Bone Sucking Sauce Mustard flavor. Libbie bought a bottle of water. In the education building i bought a sour pickle. wow, it was sour. We then went into the cow barn and sat down to watch a cow judging before visiting the veggies. Saw Jennifer and McKenzie working the veggies before starting back at 5:02. By the time we got to our car it was 5:23 and then home at 5:45 in pretty busy traffic. We chose to go out to dinner at La Cocina where I had a Quesadilla La Cocina and a Yuengling. It was a pretty busy and physically active day. I was sore all over but happy. Listened to Rigoletto live on Sirius this evening to the end and then went to bed. |
