Fair Enough

Bridget went home to Des Moines in August for a visit with family and friends. It just so happened that the Iowa State Fair was being held the weekend of her visit. I've been told that the fair is a one in a kind event that is not to be missed. Below is Bridget and Bernie checking out some blue ribbon livestock.
Next is the world renowned butter cow. That's real butter people.

Here we have the first place pumpkin weighing in at over half a ton. That's a lot of pie!

Bill decided to get into the action by posing with the sand sculptures.

Finally, the Iowa State Fair just wouldn't be complete without a genuine Iowa chop. Good eats!
