The Great Minnesota Get Together

Went to the Minnesota 2011 State Fair today.  The weather was perfect. low 80's with a slight cool breeze.  Spent about seven hours there.  Got my fair poster, I collect them.  Lots of yummy food.  Reese's deep fried candy.  (very rich, but good)  mini donuts, apple-caramel malt, Sweet Martha's chocolate chip cookies, with all the milk you can drink.  What a combo.  The pork chop on the stick, root beer floats and rice kristy bars, one of my favorites.  Going through this list reminds of how full I got, no dinner for us tonight.  We walked 15,000 step, not to bad.  Ed and I like to people watch.  Had to check out the Harley Davison bikes.  We even found one we liked.  Went to the sheep barn, so I can sink my fingers in their wool.  Love it!  There was of course lots of people, but everyone was on their best behavior.  We had a great time and look forward to next year!
