Last weekend was the Verde Valley Fair. The kids actually got Friday off of school, so we went on Friday. typical carnival, we got the kids bracelets, so they could ride all they wanted. of course, this jumpy thing was not included with the bracelets, so an extra $5.00 per kid. I think carnivals are one the fastest ways to empty your wallet. We did get out of there without playing any games...

OK, I had never seen these before...Frozen pickle juice! I thought they were gross, but Max's friend Chance liked them, and had at least two.

Didn't have any famous lamonade, but Max got a deep fried twinkie.


In addition to the Twinkie, Max had curly cheese fries for dinner. Eric and I had BBQ pork sandwiches, Doug had nachos, and Chance had a giant pickle. He was on a pickle binge :-)



That's the deep fried Twinkie. They also had deep fried Oreos and Snicker bars. You gotta love carnival food!!




Max and Chance finished out the night on The Zipper. I recently got a new camera, so I had to check out the night time setting. Not bad. It is waterproof, so stay tuned for some underwater pics....

"I think the fair is the fastest way to empty out your wallet" -- ha haa!! You are right, Sarah!

Loved your summary of the VV Fair. Also, how in the heck did I miss the frozen pickle juice booth??

Joerg,
I got a new little point and click. It's an Olympus Stylus 1030SW. Shockproof, waterproof, dustproof, and pretty much idiot proof :-) It's much smaller and easier to bring everywhere than the D70.
