A day at the fair - 13 pix [View All]

[Blue_In_AK]

As always, there were so many fun things to see and do at the fair, that I ending up taking way, way too many pictures. We may not have the biggest fair in the world, but we have a good time. Here are a few.

The cabbages are a bit on the puny side this year since we had so much rain. The biggest one I saw was only 56 pounds. But I'll bet this is the biggest kohlrabi you'll EVER see, a new world record, 81.7 pounds.


Mmm, bacon, bacon, bacon!! (I'm KIDDING....)


Spiderman dropped in for the day.


Prize-winning home brew. The judges of this competition must have had a good time. :)


The inevitable spin - haha.


Lots of bored Alaska women love to quilt (maybe while nipping at the home brew?)


The giant slide


The Ferris wheel is the only suitable ride for a senior citizen such as myself.


We couldn't ask for a more beautiful setting.




Wheeeee!!


And beautiful fireworks to end the day.




Blue_in_CA, if you're seeing this, are you homesick yet? :hug:
