No Minnesota State Fair, that is. Although the state fair in all its sticky glory is dear to me, i'm relieved they made the decision they did. Next time, I want us all to be there safely. It will mean that much more to me for taking the time off.

I saw a man clearing snow off his driveway. Everyone with a driveway was doing some form of this activity. He was the only one I saw who was doing it wearing only his bathrobe and slippers.

The temperature was just above 32 degrees F and there was a stiff breeze out of the north that made it feel much colder.

It lasts sixty seconds. It brought tears to my eyes today, and I've already been to the fair three times this year. Lord knows how I will feel fifty weeks from now when it is all about to begin again.

Points to quibble over:
Catsup on a Pronto Pup? Highly controversial.
Riders bringing the flags into the area: I'm assuming the American flag hanging high above in the area takes precedence, otherwise there should be another rider with one in the prime position.
Whack-a-Mole visual with tympani audio? Genius.

Many thanks to [personal profile] helenraven for the link. I feel sure there is more to their relationship than meets the eye, but the camera loves them.
