The County Fair!

The last time I went to the county fair was when I was 9 or 10 years old. I didn’t go see any animals, just rode the rides. This time we didn’t go on any rides, just went to see the animals.

Draft Horse demonstration
At the draft horse demonstration, they were pulling 5,000 pounds of weight. You could see the horses so eager to start pulling before they were even hitched up sometimes.

Pork
The piggies had very cute hineys.

I'm too sexy for my cage.
The bunnies that were disqualified for the pedigree judging were available for sale. It was tempting to get one. Look at how cute he is!

Cow Milking - Before
Another demonstration: Cow milking. You could see the udder slowly shrink as the pump worked.

Fried Oreos
And of course, it’s not the fair if you didn’t get something fried with the whole deal. These are deep fried Oreo cookies. Dipped in funnel cake batter and fried until they floated. The cookies were soft from the grease they soaked up. A pleasure.

  1. the pigs do have cute butts! I like how the pigs and the rabbit are lying down in a similar fashion. :)

  2. I don’t get it, how come you didn’t bring home a bunny?

  3. all you’re missing is the glass of milk to go with those deep fried oreos

  4. Yeah I should’ve asked for some milk at the milking demonstration.

    I was very tempted to bring home a cute widdle cuddly wuddly bunny but we decided Gina and Marco were enough for us for now. Some day though.
