This time of year, on any given weekend, if I'm not working you're likely to find me at one of the local fairs! To me this is as good as entertainment gets! The price is always right and I get to indulge my passion for animals of all kinds, ride the midway, eat fair food and meet and greet my neighbors. It's hard to see how you can improve on that!
Being raised on a farm in agricultural country, the county fair was always the highlight of our summer. We were always exhibiting animals and various 4-H projects. We prepared for that fair for months ahead of time and savored the successes far into the fall!
In case you're as crazy about these events as I am I'd like to provide you with a list and dates for some of the areas finest fairs. Go see for yourself where your food comes from. Go see a tractor pull or enjoy some great musical entertainment under the stars in the grandstand. I'd love to hear about your favorite local fairs and what you like best about them. Eat something on a stick for me!
