The Vernon County Fair

Fair season is a wonderful time. The smell of cotton candy, funnel cakes and popcorn is in the air. As you look around you see tons of rides, some that you would never dare catch yourself on, and games that you can't wait to sink your little hands into. I, unfortunately, am not one for the big intense rides. My favorite ride is the ferris wheel because it's nice and calm and you can see so much of what's going on around you. Stopping directly at the top is quite scary for me, since I am afraid of heights, but in the end when the ride is done, it's worth it. The games are so much fun, but you have to be careful about which ones aren't rip-offs.

I had never went to the fair at night before, but I did this year and it's so much more interesting at night-time than during the day! Everything is lit up and it looks so pretty.

Rides and games arent the only sources of entertainment during fair time. A person can't forget about the showing of animals. Children and adults from all over the county enter their animals in the fair hoping to win a blue ribbon to add to their collections.

I had a great time at the Vernon County Fair this year and I can't wait for next year!

Weird Weather

The leaves are starting to turn, which means that fall is just around the corner. Or is it? This past summer has been an unusual one. It almost seems as if summer was our spring or fall. The weather was cold and it always seemed to be raining. I can't really remember a whole lot of times when I was able to actually leave the house without having to put a sweatshirt or raincoat on.
Now that fall is just around the corner, you'd think that we would be having cool weather and within a few weeks, the trees should be getting ready to start turning color. However, that isn't the case. It's getting warmer now and the 80 degree weather that we should have had the past 3 months is now just starting to take effect. And what about those trees? About three weeks ago they already started to change! That's crazy! It makes me wonder what kind of a winter we are going to have. I hope it's a mild one!
