All's Fair

I just got back from my almost a week long gig at the fair. I'm pooped. I tore it up today by shooting almost 3 GB of photos and wasting both battery packs. Ran out of juice just after the demolition derby started.

I am a born 'n raised gear head, and naturally I enjoy car stuff, but this was the craziest thing I have ever seen! The motors revving up high, and the smells that come with hot motors were great--then they started running into each other. Sad, even though I know that is was they are meant for...still. I guess I don't get it.

Photos of the fair will certainly appear here in the next few days. For now, just know I spent 10 hours today--mostly on my feet--and ate only a funnel cake and a jumbo strawberry lemonade.. As far as fair food goes, not too bad! Not at all like the corn dogs for a week I remember well from my 4H days.
