Fair Weather

It was a hot one at The Great Minnesota Get Together...



We left at 8 am 9 am 1015 am and spent the day at the State Fair for one last hurrah before Josh and Jake start college. Highlights of the day...

Cheese curds for late breakfast... ok... lunch
Saw the new baby piglets
Sweated like pigs Mid-90's for temps
Spent intimate time with a crowd of 170,986
Stepped in manure in my flip-flops
My kids were old enough to lose track of
4 pair of earrings for $10
Holy Land Mediterranean Lemonade with basil at the International Bazaar
Sammy Hagar's Four Decades of Rock with special guest Buckcherry and Rival Sons (ok... but we were outside the Grandstand)
Sushi guy demo
Mancini's steak sandwich
Sweet Martha's Cookie Jar for the ride home
...with a half gallon of milk from the gas station



....It was a l-o-n-g 2 hour drive home at 11 pm
