The Country Fair.


My Man had tickets to watch Arsenal the other weekend. He took son# 1 so son#2 and I decided to visit a country fair. I have never been to one of these so it was a treat for both of us. A country fair is full of animals, farm produce,artists,artisans rides and amusements.



We wandered around in the sunshine enjoying the sights and sounds. We saw sheep with horns like you've never seen and smelled the scents of everything countrified, from fudge to roast pork and from hay to horses.



My son bought a cap gun and I bought mosaic mirrored bowls. We both drank sweet cool water in the sunshine and watched fishing exhibitions and trap driving displays. I rescued an escaped goat and son#2 tried his hand at target shooting.






All in all a good afternoon...

It was wonderful, wasn't it? I have always loved the fairs, showing animals and crafts I had made.
