This is the Minnesota State Fair 2018

Don't you just want to be part of this? Perfect weather brought out the mob on the first day.
We got it out of the way right away. You know how you always see somebody you know at the State Fair? Well Tom and Sandy, our old neighbors from Shakopee, were on our bus today. Other than that, pretty ordinary.
Highlight was being up close and personal with Kathleen’s favorite weatherman and anchor, Belinda and Julie from Kare 11 interviewing a dog, and then the traditional ride to Machinery Hill on the sky tram, and walking back to the art barn and stopping to see the homemade cookies and cakes. Kathleen did not say she would enter next year, as she usually does when she sees the samples that don’t seem to look as good as hers. :) It was hard finding vegan food for Stan, stopped at French Meadow to sample their Earth Wings, lines too long, patience short, and opted for the fresh french fries. Bus ride home was smooth. Another year gone, another State Fair. Kathleen’s still there last we checked.

So much to see.
