Tuesday,
August 27, 2019: The Minnesota State Fair continues. |
 |
 |
 |
|
Plenty of candy, ice cream, music and dancing. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Yes, lots of food choices too. |
 |
 |
|
Mark and Paula went to the WCCO-TV area to see the video, "Since We Last
Met." It was about the crew at WCCO and what they go through to do their jobs. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Speaking of jobs, who would want these? |
 |
 |
|
Overhead rides and Chicago Dogs were a hit at the fair. Imagine that,
at "hot dog" cap! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Then there was the "Great Big Wheel." Some 156 feet high, it carried a
lot of passengers.....some a bit scared. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Plenty to see in the grand stand building. |
 |
 |
 |
|
They it rained and hailed a bit. |
 |
 |
|
The weather cleared in time for the 2 pm parade. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
More to see and hear after the parade. |
 |
|
Always fun to see a caricature artist at work. |
 |
 |
 |
| Then there were these performers in an open area. One jumped over a group of people to the delight of the crowd. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
Even Elvis showed up to entertain. |
 |
 |
|
One of the big hits every year is Sweet Martha's chocolate chip cookies.
They sell them by the bucket load! |
 |
|
A big attraction in the midway is New York, New York. |
 |
 |
| Winners triumph. |
 |
 |
| They day finally came to an end as the sun went down. |
Quote of the day:
 Love
the MN Fair. Mark
