County Fair

I am way behind on posting here...Labor Day weekend was the Great Geauga County Fair. We had great weather to enjoy our time. We watched the races for a bit...we were sitting right behind a group of Amish teenagers.



This cow had just had her baby overnight.



I'm not sure the pictures do these rabbits justice. They were HUGE.

Jacob, Katie, and Emma wanted to ride some rides, so I took them while Joe and Joseph watched the animal auction. Jacob and Katie rode one of those rides where you go around and around, and up and down while it plays music.

They LOVED it.

Emma and I rode the ferris wheel. Likely the longest wait of any ride...only one car could load and unload at a time, so it took forever. But we enjoyed the views from the top while we waited for people to get on.

This picture is lousy, but the Demolition Derby was a great way to end the night. Redneck ballet, as my friend calls it. The cars go in the concrete enclosure and smash eachother until only one or two are still able to drive. There are several heats, and a grand finale with the winners of the heats. Good stuff. And we got to watch the updates on our friend's blackberry as BYU beat Oklahoma in the season opener.
