Today we went to the Nevada County Fair! Leah and her family live up in the foothills near Grass Valley and they invited Jacob and I to come to the fair with Uncle Roger. It's a long drive up there, but it was worth it. Uncle Roger drove his amazingly awesome pick up truck and we talked farming most of the way up. Uncle Roger and I are kind of farm pals. :) Right now he's doing bees, so that occupied a great deal of conversation.
We stopped at Leah's house to visit until Birken got off of work and then we headed to the fair. Here Jacob and I are posing with Lizzy. I hadn't met her yet!
It was a great fair. Similar in size to our fantastic Clackamas fair, but probably three times the amount of people (a common characteristic of California). Also, it was interesting as I usually associate fairgrounds as being fairly treeless, but Grass Valley is covered with Pines, so the fair rides were "nestled" in them.
Polly and I sharing a moment...
Me and Leah!
Uncle Roger and Jacob took on The Viper. It was Jacob's first real "adult" fair ride!
