We took R and K to the Hartford Fair. It was our very first fair experience. R enjoyed her first fair ride (a train) and her first elephant ear (who are we kidding, I ate most of that). She was able to see some animals and played on some antique tractors. Poor K was confined to his stroller - but he was a good sport. Next year he will be able to participate in the eating and playing. I don't know that we are quite ready for the Ohio State Fair - this smaller venue reminded A and me both of county fairs of our youth.
