Spider-man on a stick

Back to the fair again, the three of us this time joined by B., K., and S. Some things done differently today:

1. Bought a spider-man on a stick.


2. Got rained on. Lots.


3. Looked more closely at the paintings, dollhouses, a dragon carved from wood, pies, photography, and flowers.


4. Saw Carla W. who used to work at ORI, staffing the Audubon booth.


5. Voted for best scarecrow and best overall grange exhibit (Walterville and Spencer Creek, R. and I thought).


6. Got rained on lots more.


7. Watched D. go on even more rides than yesterday, including a free one, offered by a friendly operator who wasn't doing anything otherwise because of the rain. Today's were: flying space ship cars, more ordinary cars, merry-go-round, flying firetruck bus (with B.), a net-climbing course, and the canoe ride.


8. Ate the food most likely to win keyboard_monkey's approval, while rain poured onto the end of the covered table and ran in rivulets past us.


9. Patted more sheep and a bunny.


10. Got the back of my legs all covered with mud.
