County Fair

The local county fair was just about a month ago,

and these photos remind me of when

I was a kid and brave enough to get

on all the 'BIG' rides....



Ooh, the ferris wheel...sorta,
each of the carriages are enclosed,

with the passengers facing each other.

Haang on!!!
Guess I'm still that brave lil' kid...
but now armed with a camera!

This is what the view was
like from one of the rides!

The Kamikaze is best when you're sitting up front...

the ground rushes up towards you and then, just when it
looks like you might turn into a pancake,
you make a loop all the way around again!

Then... you get to go backwards! Wheee!





This is one ride that I didn't think I could stomach...

so this time, I just watched from the sidelines

and remembered the good 'ol days

of climbing in and making the carriage

flip over and over, as fast as it go,

while the ride spun you 'round and 'round.

So, tell me...what's your favorite ride at the fair?
