AFair

On Saturday we made the journey to the Fairgrounds for the DuPage County Fair. As far as fairs go I must say this is one of the more impressive events I’ve been to. We now have successfully introduced the kids to elephant ears. They are still too small for the rides, but the goats, pigs, cows, and baby chicks were enough to them entertained all day. What amazes me the most is how agricultural one of the most affluent counties in the state is. I just don’t know where they shipped in all these animals from when every day in the paper you read how the last specs of farmland have been developed into housing. While we didn’t hang around for the rodeo or the demolition derby, I cn’t remember a more fun fair experience.
