The only part of the fair I enjoy involves looking at animals that make Jan allergic.

We've skipped it every year since we've had kids.

Your fair experience sounds pretty nice, though.

I opted for a single scoop of the Chocolate Raspberry wine ice cream instead of wine sampling. It was pretty good. I bought the olives-on-a-stick at the international bazaar. One of my favorite fair treats.

What disappointed me was that we couldn't find the DFL booth, and when we finally did, they were all out of Obama buttons. So I ordered my button from MoveOn.org and will wait for that one. However, I did get a button with a likeness of Gustavus Adolphus from his namesake college.

I could not spend too much time in the animal barns this year, though. Lots of irritants in there.
