Fair Friday

We have a few things going on here at the farm, but no pictures. Therefore, today is Fair Friday, as our county fair was this week.

Smokestack entered some of his honey and won third place in the "Amber" category. That category totaled eight entries, which was a fairly large amount of competition compared to most agriculture categories (such as persimmons and fingershape eggplant:).

The winning giant pumpkin weighed 140 pounds.

Farmer Sam enjoyed his first ride on a merry-go-round. He had a little trouble staying astride his mount.



Have a great weekend,

Sherlock

How fun! I've always wanted to go to a fair. It's so reminiscent of stories like "Charlotte's Web" and the musical "State Fair." ^_^

By the way, I passed the "Kindred Spirit" award on to your family! Check it out here!
