got your goat

Today we tackled the state fair -- and man, were we beat by the time we were done. We *tasted* onion rings, honey ice cream, the peaches and cream parfait, fried green tomatoes (awesome!), corn fritters, fresh pineapple pina colada, and cheese curds. I also witnessed the eating of a scotch egg (hard-boiled egg wrapped in sausage, breaded and deep fried) and a deep-fried cheeseburger (yes, the bun was included). So yeah. Our arteries are officially clogged.But at the end of our day, we made it down to the animal barns. Oh, how I love seeing the crazy chickens and the goats. These guys always give me great poses, and I love those eyes. They remind me of Shrek.
