SD Fair! (click me)

If you park in the free lot at the fair you get to either go back in time and ride a school bus or pretend it's 1970s England and ride a double decker bus to the the fair grounds.  Excellent way to start the evening.  Jason & I went with our tip top upstairs neighbors and friends and first stop (and only pictures) was the livestock barn.  
Here's Ketty & Dave with a goat that is very happy to have met them.
Pigs are so adorable when they sleep.  These two big'uns didn't mind me giving a pat.
I wish we would have gotten pictures of the fried food we ate, which included a deep fried twinkie w/ chocolate sauce and (for Jason) a deep fried white castle burger.  It was gone (especially the twinkie) rather quickly.  Warm crusty shell and gooey sweet center...mmmmmm.  It's once a year, so whatever.  
We also watched a wonderful classic guitar duo that you can check out here:

Bought an album that will go with my Julian Bream.
There was also a surprisingly impressive and very large artshow to check out.  You could vote for your favorite one and they did a people's choice every day.  Jason voted for the dog riding a dirt bike with goggles on.  Nick voted for the kelp.  I told the nice elderly gentlemen who was handing out the ballots that I wasn't going to vote until November, thank you.
