Tuesday...
Ryan "Elvis" Pelton on the Free Stage
Clydesdales from Pottstown
Unusual fan of Ryan Pelton!
Reindeer
GOTCHA! The quarter is glued to the road!
Derby Dan is the strangest thing I've seen at the fair!
He sits in his trash can, which is identical all the other cans
on the fairgrounds. Suddenly the can starts to slowly move!
And then his lovely face greets you!
Longhorn
G'nite! |

I can't believe the guy in the can is STILL there! I think he's been there since I was a teen.
I'm sorry I'm missing it again this year.
Love the photos!

Just back about a half hour ago. It was nice, we enjoyed the day walking around and shared different types of food to try them instead of be full after two tries.
I did a get a bit sunburned though LOL. I'm not used to being the Sun for almost six hours starting at high noon.
The smoked pork sandwich was nice, the gyro a bit salty but otherwise good. The funnel cake was, well you know, funnel cake. We certainly shared that one.
