Quilts at the fair.
A Balloon Joint
Food Joints on the Midway
We dined at a place with picnic tables and homemade signs on the Independant Midway…the fancy smancy Carnival Food is way too expensive. A Independant Midway…those are the places just outside the Carnival Midway. 4-H stands, church ladies food stands, pork producers and local people with food trailers or trucks….they pay for the “privilege” of setting up directly to The Fair Board and are not affiliated with the Carnival at all.
I hope you are enjoying the colors of summer.
I am! Mostly though it is each morning that brings me beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteI love all the different colors at your fair.. Early mornings around my house are the most colorful . Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see those quilts in person. They look interesting and different from the usual. Yes, it's definitely summer in our necks of the woods. :-)
ReplyDeleteThey are some great colors. I haven’t been to a county fair for years. Maybe this year, being less than 15 miles away we can go for a part of a day. I brought out a new colorful quilt for our bedroom from my collection of quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love your photos! The colors capture the excitement of a country fair.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a good eye to notice the colors of the fair and share them with us. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLove the photos. Esp the quilts. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! And those independent food vendors probably have better food anyway!
ReplyDeleteA fun post! The County Fair will open in a couple of weeks: I enjoy wandering through the exhibits.
ReplyDeleteYou have an amazing fair. Ours is tiny, tiny, tiny, but people are very loyal to it!
ReplyDeleteVery colorful, indeed! Sounds like you know the best places to eat, too. :)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing all of the fair colors. I would think that the “independent “ booths would be much more fun to visit. Fun times of summer.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Betsy
I'm sure you enjoy the midway...carnaval with the background you have.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd I put steel for the roof, Bennie said silly
we live in the 21 century.
The colors of summer are indeed wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun at the fair ( and nice weather too!).
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts!
ReplyDeleteGlad you ate at the other food booths. I know all eateries are inspected by the health departments and deemed safe to eat but I trust locals more - - and like supporting them.
I miss the fairs....it's too hot here. I would definitely go for the independent food vendors....sounds so good...I remember those food booths...YUMMO! I remember one that was from the Dairy Association and they were serving cream puffs!
