This was our first year at the Minnesota State Fair. It is smaller than the Puyallup Fair in Washington State and didn’t have too much going on but overall it was okay.
The television news kept talking and talking about it so we thought it would be spectacular. I think they just didn’t have enough to talk about.
Here are some pictures — a couple of them reminded me of our old neighborhood Solstice Parade in Fremont, Seattle, WA.

Minnesota needs a theme song for their fair. Will we go next year? We’ll see. If we do we’ll go early in the day like we did this year. And, we’ll take the shuttle. That is one thing they definitely do well — shuttling people to the fair.
