Friday Fair Day

Nicki and Neena slept over with me at the fair last night.  We started the day by browsing the buildings.

Then we took a walk to the library.

Watched a magic show.

We had lunch in the camper, watched a couple of movies, and then went for a walk around the barns.

After their mom got to the fairgrounds we went to the carnival and they rode down the Super Slide.

The Fair Begins

Campground Registration Day

Filled up the campground today at the Fair.  Forty-five campers and ten tents.

Baldwin and the Cow

We went for a family bike ride in Baldwin Sunday evening and we saw a cow.

So we had to get a picture.  Everyone had to take a picture on the cow. Not all of us were so eager to have our picture taken on the cow.

We had to replace a few of the numbers, but not too many.

Rain, Campground and Dave

It rained most of the morning and early afternoon.  Some storms, high winds in the Hammond/Baldwin area.
