As the sun went down and the lights went on, we made our way to the motor sports...

Then, of course, it was down the midway. Oooh, I just love a nighttime midway, with it's bright bulbs and musical screams.

  4. Ha ha. Our fair is always in August which is one the the hottest months here. But that just means the thermometer rises to the 80s. Ventura is a little beach town and our fairgrounds are seaside.

    Thanks for the compliments lovelies!
