Then they tried to get me to change my insurance to Gieco - 15 minutes and they didn't even save me money!
Once I FINALLY got inside, I saw some crafts, including a carved Mr. Potato Head!
Since I was from the furthest away, they even gave me a coupon for Malt-o-meal. I like the food people! Then, right by the Malt-o-meal people, there was a tractor from home; yay John Deere!
After some tractor riding, I got to play in a puppet show. I sang "I've got no strings," it seemed appropriate.
Next, I went to play in the New Mexico Department of Natural resources building; do you see me?
How 'bout now?
Last, I went to see Old McDonalds Farm.
I got nervous when I saw some future HAMburgers...
Then they tried to keep me!
Help!
I decided they were right in the first place, I should have stayed out to begin with and insurance sure would have been a good idea!
No fried food on a stick or a butter cow, how lame. I don't know how they even call themselves a state fair.
ReplyDeleteI know! Probably goes along with New Mexico having inferiority issues about being it's own country - I mean state.
ReplyDeleteHey I was born in New Mexico! And by the way Quinn, Hamburgers come form cows not pigs. And you say your form Iowa.
ReplyDelete*I* know that Erin, hence the exaggeration of HAM in the description of burger?
ReplyDeleteO I didn't read the fun fact about the first lady letting sheep on the white house lawn. I think when I get a house I'm not going to buy a lawn mower. I'll just DJ. Chris, and Jesse graze and that will also cut down on the food bills.
ReplyDeleteLike @Erin, I grew up in New Mexico (nearly born there)! But you looked like you had an okay time at the state Fair.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet post! And I loved the pig pictures. I went to the adjacent Arizona State Fair in 2008, and I have a few photos of pigs, and one of a sheep being shorn. Tell me if they would be suitable for a companion piece on your blog, or if you would just like to see them.
