A few thoughts and a few more pictures.
I would have thought the girls would have liked to ride in the front seat (shot gun) and see the sights, but they preferred to either sleep or be on their screens.
I forgot how much teenagers like to sleep, snack, watch TV (screens) and talk on their phones.
The Central States Fair – a bit more information and photos. Admission was only $3 and the parking is free.
Violet and Evie got henna tattoos at the Central States Fair. The dark ink you see falls off within an hour, the design stays a medium shade of brown for 1 to 2 weeks. The girls were very excited to get them. They are hoping the tattoos are visible when they go back to school.


Okay, I have never seen this at the Erie County Fair but, one building was just chickens!!! (If there is one I have not seen it and will definitely want to see it next time). There were the white chickens (the ones we think of when we picture chickens) but mostly there were very unusual chickens. They were beautiful chickens, big chickens, small chickens, roosters that made sure we knew they were there. Some were for sale and some just on exhibit. Here are a few. Tell me they are really cool looking chickens!!!
Just thought you’d like to see.
