Super Fun Day

Today I woke up to “Super Fun Day.”  James surprised me by taking me to the Ohio State Fair which meant waking up at 6:30 and driving for 2 hours to Columbus.  We did have a super fun day.

I loved taking pictures of the rides, the bright colors with the pretty blue sky in the background.

DSC_0107They had a logger demonstration and James and I thought, oh that’ll be interesting, but it actually was.  They were really funny.  Here they are doing the log in the water competition, I thought it was a good shot of him falling off.  I’ll have to add some more pictures later.

After we left the fair we went to a restaurant we saw on “Man V. Food.”  Thurman’s Cafe the food was really yummy but the restaurant is teeny-tiny, it was the longest wait to be seated I’ve ever endured.

So that was super fun day, boy am I pooped.
