South Carolina State Fair

After the wedding last weekend, Brad and I decided to spend Sunday in Columbia at the fair! I've attended almost every year since I was a little girl. I have wonderful memories of Momma and Daddy taking us girls after Carolina games. We had free reign to ride and eat whatever our little hearts desired. This was only Brad's second visit. It's always fun to watch him look around in amazement.
We rolled in about 1:00pm and went straight to the food, settling on Brad's fav- corn dogs. And then ice cream -with sprinkles. I refrained from devouring my favorite- heavily powdered sugared elephant ears. Probably because Brad's look of disgust at the mention of fried dough. We also refrained from the fried snickers/oreos/butter. I just can't imagine...
We stopped in to take a look at the State House sandcastle.
And ribbon winning roses. We also watch a piglet race and strolled through the farm animal shed.
And then decided to ride just one ride- the ferris wheel. This is the view of Williams-Brice in all its glory.
Another fun filled trip to the fair. Especially with this clown! If only I convert his orange blood....
