Well I just got back from a long day at the Fair. I think that every time we go to the fair I bore my family by hanging out in the Hobby Hall and carrying on long conversations with random people. Fortunately with cell phones we no longer have to all be at the same spot in the Fair at the same time.
So after we got there I spent a long time looking at stuff in the Hobby Hall and talking to other beekeepers (who actually remembered me from last year).
I did manage to get a few pictures of some stuff we did at the fair. The quality may not be any good since they are from my cell. ![]()
We went to some country singers who same some classic songs. I don't know about the rest of my family but I had a blast! That guy had an amazing voice. I did feel kind of out of place, everyone around us was older than 60 and there I was sitting there. The other sad thing was he sang a song from the 40s and I knew it :-)
We also went and saw Roberto the Magnificent! I don't think the show is as good as it was when the Gentleman Jugglers were together but it is still one of the best juggling shows I have seen.
We than saw the Mutton Buston. This is where they put little kids (6 or under and less than 60 pounds) on the back of sheep and try to see how long they can stay on. It's kind of a weird thing watching a 4 year old cling on to the sheep for dear life and than fall and get stepped on by the sheep.
We did see a whole lot more than this but I didn't get pictures of it. Such as the human cannon. That was incredible and I would totally do it. They put this man into a cannon and shot him around 180 feet!!! It looked like so much fun! I wonder how people get into that?
