We went to the best county fair today, in a rural county near where we live. There was no midway or rides, just an old-time fair with lots of animals and exhibits and 4H kids and lots and lots of tractors. We had an amazing time.
Some highlights:
*Tucker loved watching the kids show their pigs, and clapped for the riders as they jumped their horses.
*There was GREAT BBQ... the best fair food I've ever had
*A huge line of tractors on the way in, for Tucker to sit in
*Watching the frisbee dog competition... it made Austin ask Ben "do you ever think about how athletic other dogs can be?" (Ben didn't acknowledge such a derogatory question)
*A big petting zoo with alpacas, ducks, Wiggles the sleeping pig, chickens, calves (including a week old calf!), goats, and more.
*A sandbox filled with feed corn
*The police did a demonstration with a K9 unit, and had the dog take down a guy dressed in protective clothing. (Tucker was wide-eyed on that one.)
...and much more!
