Don’t be too scared, winter isn’t here yet. But as my Grandma Harriet always said, “after the State Fair comes Christmas.” I’m usually in State Fair mode at least a week after Labor Day.
For me, Husby, and most of my family the State Fair is…
Ick. That’s not me having big fun, but midway art is always a treat to view.
It’s not all fun and games at the fair though. I saw some random woman trying to feed a grisly bear and getting her hand bitten off…
For the most part things aren’t this scary at the fair. This year the weather was perfect except for a couple days of rain. Two out of twelve isn’t bad at all.

This is Fairborne, the nephew of the official MN State Fair mascot, Fairchild. He struck a lovely pose for my camera!

Twilight at the fair.
This year’s fair was fabulous, as usual. There were changes made here and there, but traditions stay strong throughout. So long for now to the Great Minnesota Get-Together. I’ll be back next year to reconnect with all of the education, excitement, people greeting (and watching), and of course the food. Until next year…

Fly high.
