I must say that the heat is what usually keeps me away. It sounds like you had the perfect weather. The fair is always so colorful and exciting with the competition. Those horses are so handsome. I too like to just people watch at a big event like that. Even that can be entertaining. How does it feel to be a real Hoosier now. ??

We were there last year for 3 days - my husband's family runs the horse shows -- his Dad and Mom did for years and now his brother and sister do, too. And they raise and show those beautiful Belgian draft horses. His Dad was president of the National Belgian Draft Horse Association for years and years.

I can remember growing up in Alberta City and, from our house, being able to see the spot-light that went around and around in the sky ~~ and then finally our folks taking us to the fair. And years later, it was treat to take our kids to the fair and now is a super treat to get to go to the fair with the grandkids. I could almost smell the popcorn m.e.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09934075315203081919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3463455126326179974.post-20222698933525084652008-08-14T08:02:00.000-04:002008-08-14T08:02:00.000-04:00I'm happy for you that you finally got the chance ...I'm happy for you that you finally got the chance to go to the state fair.

Did you see the HUGE oinker? Were there any piglets? I can almost taste the ice cream now. You sure do seem to appreciate those treasured treats after walking a long time and seeing/smelling all those unusual yet curiously tempting tantalizers.
