This past Wednesday, Todd took a comp day off from work (he had worked over a weekend, so he got to take time off). We spent the day at the Kentucky State Fair. This fair is HUGE and we hardly made a dent in what all there is to see and do. The fair also includes admission to Kentucky Kingdom (the 6 Flags amusement park). We spent from around noon until after 9 pm there and had a great time. This is the 5th state fair since we've been up here and we've never been to it, so we figured it was time to check it all out. (By the way, can you believe we've been up here that long?!!? It seems like we just moved!!) Anyway, some of the things we saw and did included racing pigs, Xtreme bikers and skateboarder, duck-herding dogs, walking, huge cows, sheep, walking, bees, roller coasters, helicopters, walking, military tanks, ferris wheels, slides, good barbecue, juggling, Tarc buses, corn dogs, walking, photography exhibits, jumping rope, funnel cakes, visiting with friends, ice cream, walking, ugly lamps, tatoos, elephant ears, a room full of balls, hay, corn and walking. And I'm sure there was much more!!
