goin’ up the country
September 18, 2009











……………
hi, friends. instead of flickr faves today, i thought i’d leave you with some shots taken at a country fair over labor day weekend. not pictured above: the 8 (yes, 8!) apple fritters that i ate (in addition to other delicious things).
i’m taking off for some exciting travels and so i am signing off here until the week after next. i should have lots of photos to share then.
i hope your weekend is tops! cheers.

Oh, I adore the watermelon.
Oooh…a trip! V. exciting. Hope you have fun!
I really only want to know how a watermelon can win first prize without being nibbled on a bit? I mean, who is to say it’s not dry and musty inside? Hmmmmm..must investigate further!
Love the ‘best Sundae’ shot.
That first photo is absolutely gorgeous!!! Have a great trip!
Thanks for sending back to that poem…..you are sweet. Georgia
Watermelon is a vegetable? Is this a fruit and vegetable category? Did things change and no one notified me or does everyone just know this and I’m clueless.
And let me just add that the possibility of me just being clueless is very high. :-)
this is my first time here and i just wanted to say i really like your blog. i’ll look forward to visiting again when you return from travels.
i just love country fairs :)
hope to see your “travels”…love the country faire
i’m really taken with these photos! you always inspire me to get out the film. that last one is great, and i really like the sheep and the watermelon. ah, fairs! apple fritters!
I love this set, some great shots
yay! truly what dreams are made of. already planning out the food game plan for next year. beautiful pics.
