Dorothy came into town tonight to spend the night. Grant was still up at Eagle Lake (arrived home later this evening), so we went over to the Fair around supper time, ate our annual corndog, and visited a few of the exhibits. The gardens were especially lovely, as were the vegetables, compared to our poor year last summer. The number of scarecrow entries was impressive, including ones that accentuated the theme of this years fair, Past and Future! And of course we had to visit the animal exhibits so Dorothy could bond with the pigs, and the art and quilt barns. It's "country fun" but I enjoyed myself very much! In fact, Grant and I are planning to go to the Parade tomorrow morning and maybe the Fair again, since he hasn't been yet (and I forgot my annual small bag of homemade peanut brittle).
