Shower time. This lady was kind enough to help me clean up after the cow sneeze. Isn't this little guy cute?

I came home to this lovely sunflower opened by my front door.

I'll take the sunflower. You can have the county fair.

What a lovely day you had!

Marigold what a good time you had. You are an animal whisperer.

That cow looks like a steer. They do blow snot & use to their tongue to clean around their nostrils. I love the goats they are always ready for a good pet & just soak up the attention. The county fair is a big deal in our area. My boys use to show cattle & hogs at the fair. There is a pet show for the town 4-H ers so they are included in the bringing the animals to the fair & dog obedience & agility so it has expanded including town & rural a great thing.

Love that sunflower the gold finches are eating the seeds out of my sunflowers. They are fatting up for winter.

I guess I am with Medusa on this one!! Don't really care much for the county fair and would have been with your hubby and the Lysol had I been snotted on

I am glad you had fun though and have a thing for all animals. As I am from Texas, I have been to many, many county fairs while growing up - thought it was fun as a teenager but mainly to hang out with friends more than the animals. I DO like the 4-H booths with food and crafts

Growing up in RI, we never had county or state fairs. The first year we lived here in DE, we took the kids to the state fair - my idea of nothing. Dirty, smelly, crowded, and not a whole lot of fun.

Last year was the first year I have been back to it in almost 40 years, but it was to see the Jeff Dunham show, since he played the fair. Great fun, but couldn't wait to get thru the mobs of people and back to the car when the show was over!
