Small Town Fair: Carnie Rides



Every year we go to the Duncan fair. The last two years the weather was terrible, one we had an early freeze so it was very cold. I had told Rhi that it was super cold and she didn't believe me, so none of her kids wore hoodies or anything. I was forced to give my sweater to a baby Z,  and pretty much complained the rest of the time. The next year it was a downpour. But this year was perfect! Saturday is the busy day, so we went on Friday and it wasn't too crowded  Nona always buys a few bunches of tickets so the kids can ride a few rides. I swear every year I am not going on anything but always get roped into it. I don't get sick, I am just a worrier. Lots of Ride pictures to follow, buckle up for a good time!

An overview of our fair, its little but a great time. 

Always first up, (when its not wet) is the giant slide. These three are ready for the  big race. Who will win?

Ah, McCocy and the Joy of Victory

Only to be answered with the agony of Defeat

A sweet little Captain

These two are bravely taking on the Scrambler 

Here I am with McCoy on the Ferris Wheel, with Quint and Dec in the back



Half of Rhi's family gets sick.  One of them is in this photo

Will Anti sickness pills work on these two?

Mid- Ride

Nope! here they are preparing for the worst




Aren't these two super cute?

Still disgruntled that Pa has favorite status


I was shocked that wee Archy was upset that he didn't get to ride what ever this rids was called. when the rest of the big kids did. No one would ride it again. I drew the short straw and also I have a soft spot for the little guy and he was so happy to go.  It  went really fast and high I may or may not have had white knuckles.  Archy loved it though. 





Zany Happy as a clam on her HA HA


A chicken?

Even though I brought my Camera, somehow Rhi never made a photo appearance.  I will have to catch that wily girl!
