Right before you mentioned the ghetto, I was thinking of it. The first thing I remember a professor telling us in a Sociology class years ago, is how there are people in the ghetto who have never been to the zoo or any other of the city’s wonders just a few miles away from them. That comment and realization of such an existence (to some extent at that time, mine) never left me. Maybe next weekend will be your glory,---- it has been bloody hot!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283072392763163737.post-35985571577067391572004-07-26T05:53:00.000-07:002004-07-26T05:53:00.000-07:00Well, at least you were able to look on the bright...Well, at least you were able to look on the bright side of things. I've lived in small towns, suburbs, cities, and the country. Like you, I don't think I could live the lifestyle that is propagated by the County Fair exhibits but there is something very nostalgic and I enjoy looking at all the stuff. Love the pics you shared, especially the cow.

I love the fair too! We have two within 45 miles (opposite directions) and Ab's going to show/sell a lamb at one this year. We are both going to enter some photos for judging as well! A few years back, my dollhouse won Best of Show! I just wish it wasn't so dang hot when it's fair time around here! So, I understand what you went through the other day!
