We are very lucky to have a great fair every year right here in town. They always get huge crowds and for good reason. It's the best place around for carnival food, rides, 4H tents, and live music until the stars shine in the late summer sky. Something is really special about the fair at night... it's just magical to me.
John and I went as watchers and photographers. The grounds where littered with people of all ages enjoying the festivities and truth be told I could have stayed all night just to watch and sneak photos of unsuspecting people. Here are some of my favorite captures of the night. More can be seen over on flickr.
This is the first year we DIDN'T indulge in cheese curds (our all time favorite fair treat) because they were $5 for about a cup and a half worth. YIKES... since when did the fair get so expensive?? Or maybe I'm just becoming a tightwad!

I'll be back tomorrow with the rivet tutorial. See you then.
