fair fair fair

my favorite part of the fair is always the animals...always...

that and the elephant ears or funnel cakes and the cotton candy...

the rides mostly terrify me...

(just fair rides not always amusement park rides)

mainly because they get moved around and around and around...

which means taken apart and put back together...

a lot.

hell, we lose a nut or a bolt or a screw 

every time we take something apart to move...

go ahead and tell me that carnivals don't do the same thing.

well, don't bother telling me...it will do no good...

i'll never believe you.

you have as much chance of convincing me of that 

as you have of convincing me 

that some serial killer isn't hiding underneath

the make up of damn near every clown.

(and if it's not a serial killer...it's some demented individual)

speaking of which...yes, there is a clown at the fair...

no, i didn't see him...

matt & munki steered me all around him...bless them.

munki & i will be back at the fair tomorrow and friday for more 4H stuff...

munki starts school next week (the 28th)...

and fergus is almost big enough to be let out of his bedroom 

on a full time basis...

i won't know what to do.

hope everything is loverly in your part of the world...

xox.

p.s. we did let munki take one ride on the ferris wheel...

it was relatively small...

and yes, matt & i both thought...

we can rescue her easily enough if something goes wrong...

see, i was serious.
