Fair Has Run Its Course.................

and yesterday was awards day. The Bossy Novas 4H Club picked up quite a few awards.......Cassidy was all smiles as she received a check. Trace was surprised to win a new halter, as did other members of his club. Got a shot of all the club memers and their leader, Lori. They did good.........guess we'll have to do a repeat next year.

Before the awards ceremony we headed over to the grandstand for pig races and the Monster Truck show. This is the pigs as they left the chute....naturally I was betting on the "yellow" pig who finished dead last.

We had one female monster truck driver who was worthy of a closer look. The trucks were fun to watch; but, if you've seen one, you've seen them all.

One truck managed to roll over everytime he came out, he would go back to the pits, fix it and roll it again. Seems he broke something the first time and everytime it got up into the air after that first wreck it would corkscrew and he would roll it again. He provided the most entertainment.

With that, the fair ends for another year. If we're lucky we might miss next year...........hoping for an Alaska trip before we get TOO old!! (Although it will be sad to miss the corn dogs, corn on the cob, Irish Sundaes (baked potatoes), elephant ears, funnel cakes, hamburgers, milk shakes, pies, popcorn, curly frys, turkey drum sticks and various bar-b-que.)
