I think I enjoyed them so much because it is so different from here. We had our Country Fair several weeks ago and it was dusty, dirty, little to look at, no rides-you catch my drift. The highlight for the locals is the demolition derby. I stopped going several years ago. Not into demolition derbies.<br /><br />I can relate about dressing wrong and then always having to carry things.<br /><br />My, what teeth. Hope both are okay.Gail H.
