County Fair - Animate Objects

Can't have a fair without the animals, including bleating goats.

Dairy cows hanging out doing their thing - which included chewing, relaxing, chewing, twitching, chewing and contemplation along with assorted mooing. And chewing.

Plenty of sheep at the fair from which woolly goodness like yarn comes. I was calculating how much fiber I could get off while said sheep was calculating the odds of me having food.

This goose did not lay any golden eggs. I am sorely disappointed. Even a parting HONK did not appease me.

Across the aisle this rooster was looking at me with a calculating eye. I bet he was wondering if I could hook him up with the hens in the next row.

Neither noise, nor cameras, nor the blast of fans kept this lamb from his appointed nap.

In another section were bunnies bigger than most small dogs. They did not look enthused by their surroundings, or everyone poking their fingers in to pet them.

This llama had attitude a-plenty. I took my picture and skedaddled before I could get spit on.

County Fair - Inanimate Objects

Flower from the gardening section.

Grand Champion Peaches. The ribbon is purple, but my camera insists it's blue.

Another flower, with greenery. Hope I didn't scare it looming over the top like I did.

Yes, I petted the Best of Show fleece. I have 4 fleeces at home waiting to be made into yarn, so maybe next year.

I liked the tarp background for these flowers. Looks like it's adrift on the ocean.

These are what Grand Champion Carrots look like, people. They'd end up roasted in my house.

 

Grand Champion Quilt. I love the color and movement in this one. Different than the usual quilts.

Lots of Rose entries. I liked these the best. 

 

 

This flower was all alone in its category.

So how is your county, state or local fair going? Has it started yet? Things to see, do, pet, covet?
