    Our county fair starts today! The kids who live in that city all get the day off from school every year and it's half price for them. My son is taking his gf on Saturday and I made them promise to bring me back kettle corn and a cinnamon roll! I have to say I look forward to seeing Violet's smiling face in these videos! ❤

    I told u before that I’ll never physically make it to AK. Your trips have transported me there. I really enjoyed the art and the quilts. So many foods to try but I’d like to try the Russian booth. Both my grandparents were from Ukraine. Thanks Lauren for a wonderful view of the fair. Loved it!

    When I went to our Exhibition, the equivalent of your fair, loved going to all the arts and crafts, flowers, cakes. Of course my kids got bored so I would bribe them with the promise of rides. What a great idea going without them wished I’d done that. My mum was a brilliant crafter, especially handmade quilts.

    @jennyroberts9233 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love a candy apple. Haven’t been to a state fair in 20 years I would guess. We went 40 years ago and our car was broken into. I guess that put a damper on us going for a while. I liked seeing the horses do there show. Tricks around an arena. Violet making those sounds with her mouth is the sweetest. I just crack up 😂

Flower and large vegetables, beauty and wow. Always need a little fair food. It’s a no to the rides. I enjoyed my time coming along with you all. Thank you

    My favorite part is the animals, the vegetables, the flowers, but it wouldn’t be a fair without all the wonderful food and crafts. Thank you for sharing this video. I think you did a good job showing us most of the fair. It looks like a large fair.

    We just got done with the Saginaw County Fair which I have been a board member for over 20 years. It was a big success. I am also superintendent of the antique department and we have a lot of antique exhibitors that come in just to show their beautiful things. Your Fair is also very nice. A family can spend a lot of money, if your not careful. I remember years ago as a young Farm girl my mom and dad bringing a picnic basket when we went to the fair and we stayed in the park and ate all the good food that my mother had packed for us fun times back in the 40s and 50s. They don’t do that so much today but how fun those years were we each got a caramel or candy apple and we got some cotton candy. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful Fair with all of us.
