On Independence Day, I visited the Marin County Fair. I have a secret fascination with agriculture as well as a not-so-secret love of Americana, so I kinda love going to these things. Here are a few of the highlights from that day:
First, we visited the barnyard.
Really good advice!
Big Bird's smaller cousin?
Then, we witnessed something you just have to see to believe: pig racing.
"Pork: America's Best Kept Racing Secret"
The pigs leave their trailer, ready to race!
It was difficult to get a shot of the pigs in action, due to the swines' super speed.
Finally, we wandered around the fair grounds to see what was what.
Who can resist the Public Safety Fun Zone? Not I.
This lemonade stand reminded me of "Pushing Daisies." RIP.

This weekend I’m en route to the American Library Association in Chicago. Here’s where I’ll be; stop by and say hello if you’re there!
