Saturday was real overcast and rain was predicted off and on. Jim and I walked over to see what the festival included since this was our first year experiencing this in our new neighborhood. Of course it rained only when we were there! We went back on Monday with two of my sisters. It was sunny, but hot and humid. I will intermingle my photos from both days and you will see the difference in the skies!
Love those lights in a row! No blue skies here! |
There was entertainment every hour on the stage in the dining tent. Irish dancers performed while we ate.
I don't know about you, but when I was little, these games cost about 25-50 cents to play. Now? $3 Holy Mackerel! Could you imagine what it would cost to take a family of 4 to the carnival?
And finally, here's a ride I would NEVER go one. Nope, nope, nope, nope.
Beautiful skies, though, yes? |

That looks like a fun event. It certainly gave you some great shots of things in a row. I hope some of the frog money went to the charities. I remember those .25 days too. Nope, I wouldn't ride that one either.
I think that you had fun, Pat. I should take 'row' pictures on the 15th when our little town has a festival. And no, I wouldn't ride on that ride ever, not even once.

oh fun fun...i love the fair...all the lights and sounds and people...that first shot is really cool with all the light bulbs...
What a great selection of shots, Pat. And plenty of things in a row too!
what fun. and as always a great eye :)
What a fun fair!
What fun pictures! We're heading to the county fair this weekend.
You always find great "things in a row!"
I like carnival fairs. I write a lot about amusement parks on my blog.

Nice blog. Would you like to follow each other? =)
Thanks for the encouragement you left on my blog - and for the advice. I'm going to do some updating!
I always enjoy reading your posts because you are a hoot! Loved the Septemberfest photos. Then I read the post about unpacking the treasures and I can see why you cried. What a find - the christening dress. So happy to learn that Jason was okay.
I had a baby brother born back in the late thirties with a hole in his heart. He lived to be 9 mos. So sad for my mom, esp. Loved the fact Jim had to carry your daughter down the aisle! Sweet. Thanks again Pat for being you.
Blessings, Barb
Carnivals are SO expensive...but I can never resist a good food booth.
Fun photos that bring back good memories from my childhood. I would get sick just "watching" a ride like this one!!! I hope to join your things in a row meme soon. Mildred
