Dan d d dann diggy diggy




OH the county fair, the event that a town looks forward to nearly every year. A place where young teenies can come an exploit young love affairs, a place where you come with your fellow friends getting smashed at the beer garden only to talk about how smashed you were for the next year, and the place where you can simply enjoy a belgian waffle cooked on a stick dipped in chocolate and covered with sprinkles and nuts. Ahh nothin like it. Its amazing how similar county fairs are cross national, doesn't matter where you go. One thing was oddly dissimilar this year, the corporate carnie. Yes, its true, the ex-vietnam vet carnie we were used to growing up, is an extinct species nowadays. What happened to those crazy kats who slept underneath the ride that they called there own? I'm extremely saddened by this cause they were reason number 4 of why I attended these fairs. Glad to see The Lions Club still going strong (largest volunteer organization worldwide).
