Fun Fair

I took E. to the Jo. Fair in August
She did not have any desire to hug
the animals at the petting zoo.

E. did a lot of pointing.

There was some pulling.

I tried to show her the correct way to
handle a petting zoo.

E. did interact with the animals but
she just lacked the enthusiasm for which I was hoping.

We looked at the little animals in cages.

We found some very small piglets to enjoy.


Aren't they cute?

Then it was on to the 4-H/FFA exhibits.

This girl let me get into the pen with her pig.

This boy let us pet his sheep.

This 4-H kid had a bean bag toss
and gave me a lollipop.
(My Mother told me that she never did this as a 4-H kid.)

We found this cool show from Wildlife Images.

Yes indeed, that is an actual eagle that woman is handling.

Cool, huh?

This was a fair entry I had never seen before--
painted rocks.
Something my Grandma Joan would have liked.
