This weekend is the start of the county fair, which runs for 10 days at the Agricultural Center. It’s the second largest county fair held in the state and i always well attended and lots of fun for the whole family.

Of course, the kids love the arcade and rides, but they also love to see the animals and the competitions. They will have pig racing, clogging demonstrations, live concerts and all kinds of fun. I’m interested in the arts and crafts, quilting and gardening areas, and hubby wants to see the antique cars, the tractor pull and loudly proclaims that he sure wishes he could be one of the judges for the pies, cakes and cookies baking contests.

We’re thinking about taking a day as soon as hubby’s assistant manager comes back to work to cover for him. It will be nice to go to something like the county fair and experience it as adults without the distractions of having little kids to chase after and dole out money to every time we turn around.
