Can I milk another blog post out of my weekend? Of course I can, because the other thing I did over the weekend (Thursday night is the weekend, right?) was go to the Marshfield Fair.
We all just love the Marshfield Fair because there’s something for everyone.
There are giant pumpkins. That’s Hannah and her friend, Gianna, posing so graciously.
And crazy vegetable creations. This corn and cucumber canoe was really clever. Aren’t the asparagus oars the coolest?
There’s a demolition derby and that’s my favorite part of the fair. Well, that and the beer, but they sort of go hand in hand, don’t you think?
There are model trains. I think Dale would still be standing there watching the train go ’round if I hadn’t enticed him away with promises of more beer.
There are even things for my blog friends.
Swine for Ann.
And an AssWatch of a different sort for Dave.
Come back tomorrow and I’ll show you the one other teensytinylittle thing I did last weekend.
Manise Said,
I love me a good fair. Looks like yours was fun! The corn and cucumber canoe is a hoot! Great choice for the oars.
Carol Said,
Hannah and Gianna sounds like a new fall lineup! And probably better than many we’ll see;) I’m also imagining a pumpkin pie of great magnitutde!
You sure know how to spend a Thursday! Cow butts, ~snort~ I think Dave has us all noticing “behind” the scenes now
Kate Said,
Wow… you got teenagers to pose for a photo?? ha ha ha. I, too, like the demo derby. We go to the Topsfield Fair each year and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the racing pigs. We sit and wait for the racing pigs. It’s over in like a minute, but I love them. And the pulling teams (horses).
And, tell Dale that Dan would be right next to him, watching the trains go ’round for days… Must be a guy thing.
margene Said,
Add Smith as a train watcher. Sounds like a great night.
Cheryl Said,
Ooh, i love demolition derbies! That’s my favorite part too.
Robin in VA Said,
LOL…the last picture is a hoot! I love the demolition derby…and beeerrr!
The girls really give the melon a sense of dimension, who’s gonna eat it?
Kathy Said,
I’m thinking the teensylittlething may involve another wheel?
Kim Said,
Country Fairs are always so much fun! I haven’t been to Marshfield in years.
Hmmm……….I can’t wait to see what this teensy little thing is….
knitnana Said,
Now THAT’s an asswatch!
lololol
(((hugs)))
ann Said,
he’s a cutie Carole! I wonder if he’s some kind of fancy pig with those rounded ears and his tan color? thanks for thinking of me!
elizabeth Said,
Why do I get the feeling that the “teensy little” thing is actually totally huge?
Molly Said,
Um, does that canoe look really, really dirty to anyone else? No? Just me? All right then.
Kelly Said,
The fair looks like fun!
Beth S. Said,
“I know what you did last weekend”… ha!
And that’s Some Pig!
Dave Daniels Said,
Yeah….no. For AW, there is a strict NO NUDITY rule. He’ll have to put on his pants. Or a Speedo at the very least.
Amy Said,
No, I don’t think you should ever milk anything for a blog post. God knows I never do. Live up to my example, please.
Macoco Said,
I love a good fair. The Spencer Fair always had a demolition derby and that was my favorite part as well.
kmkat Said,
Hey, I dragged out our county fair for nearly a week’s worth of blog posts — I say, go for it!
Boys and toy trains. It’s a genetic thing. My Smokey would be there for hours.
Birdsong Said,
Great photos! I love going to the fair too … for many of the same reasons.
Karen Said,
There is nothing like a trip to the fair! Glad you all had a great time.
Cookie Said,
Of course, it counts! I love that you can get almost a week’s worth of blogging out of a weekend.
Sounds like a wonderful way to spend a day.
Kristi aka Fiber Fool Said,
LOL! Love the ass watch!
Teresa Said,
The cucumber boat looks neat! I used to live in a small town and we would have fair days like this…now..*sighs*..I live in a huge city and there’s no “home town” feeling anymore. I looked like it was fun though! I love fairs for the food myself
.
Lucia Said,
It all looks like great fun, but AW takes the cake. That Dave is quick on his feet, though.
JessaLu Said,
There’s nothing like the county fair when it comes to decorative vegetables
) Looks like fun!
Lee Ann Said,
You so did not do anything teensy or little. Spill it, lady
lisa Said,
So the first time I got a good look at the back side of a cow was at the NYS fair- a huge affair. O-M-G said I.
