And just like that, the fair is half-done. My, how it's flown by.
Today was $2 Tasty Tuesday, where many vendors offer $2 portions of their menu items. Julie and I decided on several things to get. We decided to really indulge without breaking the bank. If you saw the items I posted on Facebook, you'll see that we really got into it, but it only cost us about $10. We tried to decide on our favorite item, but it was hard. Everything was so good! I don't normally pig out like that, but when it's fair food, and it's only $2, I decided I needed to live a little. And since I'm pretty good judging how I need to administer my insulin, my sugar levels stayed good.
The fairgrounds were quiet tonight, which is quite typical for a Tuesday night. Thursday is normally quiet as well. We saw quite a few people we knew, and we stopped and chatted for a while. Some people were leaving the concert featuring a Taylor Swift tribute artist, and they were unimpressed. They actually left early, and they were Swift fans. I wouldn't know, I'm not a Taylor Swift follower. We made our way through a few buildings and got through at record speed due to the sparsity of the crowds. OneOk and DCF in the Pride of Kansas building have the best giveaway stuff. At the OneOk booth you have to answer a trivia question to get a prize, but they provide an info sheet for you to look at, so it's pretty impossible to leave that booth without getting a prize.
We were saddened to learn of an unfortunate accident at one of the food booths. The only info available is that there was what sounded like an explosion. Multiple people were hurt, and 2 were taken to the hospital. The scene was sad. There was shattered glass all over the place, some shards almost half a block away. I'm just praying that everyone involved will be OK. This booth is owned by the Cattlemen, and their specialty is the "Cow Patty," a dish that's kind of like loaded french fries.
Tomorrow is Wednesday, and we're pretty excited about that. We're picking up my mom and we're going to see Casting Crowns with Katy Nichole. We're pretty excited about this night of praise and worship. I'm not sure if these will be a post tomorrow night, it just depends on how late the concert goes. Besides, if that's all we do, there's really not point in blogging, especially if I post pics as the night goes on.
Remember, if you have any questions or comments about the fair, this is where you can drop them. Also, this blog exists because of your likes and comments, either on this page or on the Facebook page. I sure appreciate you taking the time out of your day to read my blog. Good night and God bless!
