Clark County Fair

As you can tell from Saturday's post, the Clark County Fair is in full swing.  It started Friday.  I also go on opening day because we can get free tickets for entrance and a free breakfast also.  This year, I stayed  almost all day -- left just before 10:00 PM.  In 14 hours, I saw almost everything -- everything I was interested in including. . .

                                                                                Two men playing a very large chess game.
. . children trying to walk on water inside huge butbbles--the one to the far right made it standing up but not for long. . .CLICK on photo to see far right side. . .

A very big pig that could do tricks.  The best one was holding a large "dollar"coin with its front hoofs and placing it in a piggy bank.. . .

                                                                                                 Knights joousting. . .

                                                                                               Beautiful quilts. . .

and snowman stitchery by young children. . .


                                                                                                   and wizard quilts. . .

and crocheted flag afghans. . .


and beautiful flowers. . .
                                                                                               and fantastic bands. .

and serene rides. . .


and scary ones. . .

and some that look scary but aren't really . . .

and o so much more!  I had a great time being there but my feet were glad to get home again.

  1. I understand why you staid there all the day long!! so much to see and to enjoy! even the things that you won't do (the"scary" ones, or the bubbles on water) are pleasant to look at! Did you buy the snowman?.. The quilts are wonderful!!And knights! that's must be great to see them jousting! Ho, i think I would have liked it very much too!
