Last night Luke and I decided to go to the Saline County fair here in Benton. It was a lot of fun! It's not near as big as the State Fair that's for sure, but it sure felt a lot safer! We went through the Arts and Crafts building where we saw some neat stuff. We of course had to see the animals too! That's usually the only reason I go to the fair at all! I almost laughed til I cried when a rooster attacked Luke!!! He was so focused on getting a picture up close of this rooster in his cage, that he didn't see the other one right next to his hand!!! The rooster grabbed the string on our camera and pulled...I'm not sure who was more shocked the rooster or Luke!
We also saw some Pigs that looked just like Stormy all sprawled out in their cages. One goat was even eating on one of the tarps that was supposed to keep the rain out! The Master Gardener building was neat too. They had this HUGE African Violet....I can only hope mine grow to be that big in my kitchen window.
After the fair we met some friends at Chic-Fil-A. What we didn't know was that we could have had church there also! It was full of Geyer Springs people!!! While visiting we saw Mrs. Sharon and her daughter Jill. Mrs. Sharon was our principal at SCA (our small private high school. I still don't know to this day why I was so upset to graduate!!!). She didn't have much to say and that was fine by me!
We finally left Chic-Fil-A at 10 because they closed at 10. We were there for 3 hours catching up on good times and visiting. Jason and Jennifer are going to come with us to church which will be neat.
Well enjoy the pics!

Oh, fair food is the best isn't it? We go to the one here in Bryant just for the food. Then leave. HA Always good to be able to get out and do something different. Funny... about the rooster!
YOU had chocolate fried pies.....oh they are my favorite! A favorite I will never be able to have again.....well, not in front of your little skinny daddy! LOL The pig did remind me of Stormy britches in a weird sort of way; I've always wanted a goat but daddy says NO. BUT it would NOT be for eating!!!! Glad ya'll had a great time...next time you see Mrs. Sharon be SURE to tell her that Christopher and I said YO! LOL LOL LOL LOL
That food looks amazing! I love the fair atmosphere...especially when its safer than the LR one. Glad you had fun!
I wish you had a picture of the rooster with Luke! That would happen to you guys! My favorite fair food are the funnel cakes!
I'm so disappointed there is no pic of the rooster that attacked Luke! I would love to have seen that! I, too, love the fare at the fair!
