:ROFLMAO: :LOL: :ROFLMAO: No wonder we get along!! (y)
I was thinking, "That's hilarious! It's something I would do."

Guess who entered the smallest tomatoes :D

Oh, now that just makes it even better! (y) (All I ever find is marbles. :(.)

Few of the things i've dug up...

Beads could have been decorative or loom weights, 2 clay marbles, normal marble, musket ball, bone toothbrush handle and probably mesolithic flint blades.

Really a great set of photos @zigs What a lot going on, love the animals, and, well, everything else. Thanks for all the pics, they really do show the diversity of the fair, and they make me smile.:)

Glad you like them :) Didn't get around to taking pics of the birds of prey, ferret racing, beekeeping, bloke on stilts, scary robotic thing on a bike that talked at you etc. :rolleyes: :D

:eek: All this, plus the plants and animals, is a one day event? Amazing.

Oh, I'd have watched the ferret racing for hours! That must be a sight to see!! I'd think they'd be too scatterbrained for racing. (Like trying to race cats... :rolleyes: :ROFLMAO:.) Do they keep them separated somehow? Otherwise, wouldn't it be ferret wrestling? What do they use for the lure? Jingling keys?

Yep, 5 fields of it :eek:

Bloke jumped out of an airplane and landed in the middle of the showground last year :eek:

Don't know, couldn't get near the ferret racing, but did see the babies under a heat lamp :)

Zigs, right now Texas is having a weather event--hurricane on the coast, heavy rain predicted for our area. My hoss ain't stupid--he isn't going to go out in this weather, even to visit you! You can rent out that tree to another equine.
