Arizona State Fair 2007

The Arizona
State Fair opened today and I must admit, I played
hooky and it was worth it. The fair was free today
before 12 and I just made it running from the parking
lot to make the deadline, why I don't know because
after 12 it was only a dollar. I was amazed how many
people where there on a Friday afternoon. Lets put it
this way, the parking lot was full by 2pm. I enjoyed
it so much I might have to revisit the fair one more
time. They had rodeos, marching bands, grizzly bears,
great food, music and much more. Below are a few of
the pictures I took with my cell phone since I forgot
my camera.
It was a blast you should bring the family grab a candy apple and enjoy.
