The County Fair

Another great year at the L.A. County Fair - Arthur is now the same age that Beatrice was when she first went to the fair.

 

We stayed the whole day and did it all, from goat-milking to pig (and turkey) racing to award-winning quilts and vegetables.  There was even a parade.

Beatrice declared her favorites to be the stunt dog show and the rabbits.  She also admired the entries in the cake decorating contest.

Highlights for Arthur included the petting pen (where he held his own despite a goat-to-child ratio of 5-1) and the giant plate of chili cheese fries he shared with Dev.

 

 

Personally, I'm in it for the barbecued corn.
