Minnesota State Fair

This last Saturday we went to the Minnesota State Fair.  Bryon and I were volunteering at the Children's hospital booth to talk to children about ATV safety.
So Amanda and her friend Abby took Adri and Josh to wander around and see the animals etc.
It is a huge fair set in a very beautiful spot.  There are tall trees and beautiful buildings on the fairground that have been preserved as well as the normal sites you see at a fair.  There are the rides, the booths, the animal barns and the FOOD!!  Apparently this is the biggest attraction at the fair.  We sampled a pup dog which is a footlong corndog made fresh and brushed with ketchup and mustard.  They were good. We also tried homemade ice cream made with a machine run by and old John Deere tractor.  We had roasted corn on the cob, 3 icee's, and a deep fried apple pie with cinnamon ice cream.
So I think we got a good sampling of the state fair.
