Tomorrow, State Fair. Friday, the World.

I’ve often heard that many people think that local fairs (in our case, the State Fair), are hokey and trite.

I honestly look forward to attending the State Fair each year. Whether it be corn dogs or the latest slice-em-dice-em, I like eating the horridly unhealthy food or examining the malice exhibits.

Tomorrow, tho’, I explore the State Fair for the first time. Not for myself, but through my daughter’s eyes. We went last year, when she was less than 6 mos. old. But the difference this time is that she’ll be able to pet the smelly sheep, cattle, bunnies, WHATever…. This time, it will be more than corn dogs (have I mentioned that I love corn dogs?) and cheese curds… It will be a fair through my daughter’s eyes.

What wonder!

What fascination!

And then, Rowan will tell the next president how to run the world…
