Martha and Karin came up from Rochester. David came from Canada by way of staying at his friend Scott's house in Hastings. Scott came along on this visit to the Fair.

It was a hot day, but we enjoyed walking around. Yes, we all had sun hats, sun screen and extra water.

We visited crop art (David's piece in the Out Of State category won a blue ribbon!), Creative Activities (there was some amazing knitting), Education (hey, free fans), the 4-H building (too hot to look at everything -- but Karin and David picked up free "4-H Alumni" buttons), the Art building (some nice stuff).

Between all of us, we consumed four lemonades, a corn dog, four free Culligan waters, two chocolate malts, one cotton candy, two pork chops on a stick and two taco.

We missed out on seeing the Internet-famous "Grumpy Cat" -- who took a brief tour of the crop art exhibit that day.

Happy 90th Birthday, Kenny!

Ken Wilson's 90th birthday. We celebrated at the annual Madonna Towers community picnic. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, UNC!

Three cousins walk into a bar: A Wilson, a Sterner, and a Steinlicht. Silliness ensues:
