The wilting heat,
the smell of grease and cigarettes,
the shaky rides,
the enamored couples wandering aimlessly about, hand in hand,
the toothless and liberally tattooed workers, (seriously, almost all of them were toothless, and every one of them had at least three tattoos,)
the sickly sweet, sticky cotton candy sticking to lips and fingers...
the Fair is in town.
With friends and plenty of wet wipes, it's a blast. Maybe I'll remember the wet wipes next time.
At the Fun Slide, we did get some pretty strange looks from all the wee kiddos in line behind us. But it was totally worth it.
and on that note, here's a truly delightful thought shared by Julia as we settled into our seats on one of the spinning rides -
Julia: ::leaning her head back:: "Mmmm... just think of all the lice that are probably living in these seats."

aw! I love the fair! but be careful with the lice lol, I have had them- no fun at all!
how fun! i wish i'd been in town to go with you. :-/
Those slides are the best kind! Way better then regular slides.
a day at the county fair with:
no pile of clipboards
no necessity to talk to bizillions of strangers
no hating on you by carnies who think you're there just to spite them
no reason to stay on your feet all day no matter how hot or wet it gets
Yep, I could do that.
Katie, you are braver than I am! :-)
