Yea, if anyone manages to get any fireworks photos from the ferris wheel I wouldn't mind seeing them.

The view from ground zero isn't all that great.

Please dear God tell me there are booths there that airbrush t-shirts. I NEED an airbrushed t-shirt.

Are black t-shirts with a unicorn and purple lightning still in this year?

10/17/2006 7:18:36 AM

I bet the fair is dead today with the rain outside.
I would love to get me a cheesesteak and ribbon chips with bacon bits, sour cream and chives right now.

10/17/2006 12:46:30 PM

Just FYI: Per SHP fireworks cancelled for this evening

10/17/2006 5:44:56 PM

10/19/2006 7:23:38 PM

I went today, and it really sucked - I couldnt believe they didnt have the gem mining anymore, thats what was the best part of the fair - plus, my husband and I played this game for a wolfpack wolfie and the sign said $2.00 for 2 balls, hit the box and you win a prize of your choice. Well the dude was giving kids and young teenagers 3-4 balls for $2 and then he only gave my husband 1 ball, grrrr I went the hell off on the guy.

10/19/2006 7:31:04 PM
