A More than Fair Day for a Fair
My sweetie took me to the Montgomery
County Fair this weekend. We spent about as much time on the midway as it took
to get beyond the
midway:![Midway Duckies, Dude](http://static.flickr.com/84/214253014_24812d1d39.jpg)
It's
funny - I'm used to more rural fairs, and didn't expect to see this type of
thing quite so
quickly:
Then,
there were the pig races.
Complete
with bad
puns.
But
dang, it was cute - check out these
faces:![Pig race!](http://static.flickr.com/86/214249030_06a74b3d50.jpg)

I
was using the day partially as a shooting lesson - this one taught me to use
framing elements to better effect. Had I moved a few inches to the left, this
guy would have been perfectly
centered:
Also,
next time I spend an hour in the stylist's chair, I'm not
complaining:
I
just love this
face:
And
I've always loved Jersey cows with their big, doe
eyes:
This
guy...
...came
with his own warning
sign:
I
got to see (but not pet) a pair of alpaca!! (I really want an alpaca of my own.
It's a rather daft obsession for someone who lives in a
townhouse):
There
were many other cute
things.
Including
my
husband.
Also,
many
cows.
And
bunnies! So
cute.![Hey Lynda! How 'bout this bunny?](http://static.flickr.com/89/214230524_27631b94ba.jpg)
Poultry...
Last
visit - the chicks in the red light district (take that, google-searching
freaks):![Chicks in the red light district.](http://static.flickr.com/83/214225431_08e49b0094.jpg)
