The County Fair

Another August...another trip to the local county fair.  This time we went to the youth rodeo.  A little muttin' bustin', a little bronco ridin', and barrel racin'. 

Colin has been wanting to dress like a cowboy since going to the Snake River Stampede in Idaho.  This night was no exception.  Both boys wore their belt buckles and cowboy hats.  It took us 40 minutes to walk from one end of the fairgrounds to the other, because people (teenage girls mostly) kept stopping to compliment the boys outfits.

We sat near the announcer's booth to take advantage of the shade, but as soon as the bronco riding started the music got much louder and much more obnoxious.  This was the scene while the announcer played "Let the Bodies Hit the Floor" by Drowning Pool.  Come on announcer guy...it's youth night at the rodeo.  Can't we get something sweet and festive?

Here's a look back at previous visits to the fair.  2012, 2011
