Diving dogs? Wowza! I would give my right arm for one of those raspberry milkshakes - ours has only the usual, chocolate, vanilla and fake strawberry. I love your photographs (as usual) - that fair looks like so much fun. I hope the drilling is over soon. It's such a shame that things have to change, isn't it? My road was a quiet dirt road with vernal ponds. It is now a poorly paved, potholed raceway with constant heavy truck traffic, loud radios and bad mufflers.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573143203599624833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-80651804459169329692019-09-06T10:54:40.496-07:002019-09-06T10:54:40.496-07:00Have to have a corndog.

Always have to look at a few campers, and I would love to see horses, but our fair is pretty much pull in for the day shows. Very few stalled horses, and the schedule is spotty for watching shows. <br />I used to spend the whole fair while I was in 4-H, showing calves and open class cattle. By the end of fair I had explored every inch of the grounds. Now days, I get there one day...re'Newhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00518751244329059330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-39046885486132953002019-09-05T18:58:07.181-07:002019-09-05T18:58:07.181-07:00Well I hear you on the new neighbor issue!

When we purchased this condo, the owners mentioned that the 'farm' had horses and at times you can hear the neighing. And I do. It is lovely. But my condo neighbors said that once the 'old lady" that has this plot of land dies, the land is 'promised' to developers. An office park - FOR GODS SAKE! So she has died this past spring. I still hear the horses at times. The property hasn't changed yet, but I know it is just a matter of time. Yes, sound deadening devices work -my husband owns several.<br /><br />Just remember - unless your new neighbors are an 'office park' - you can do this!!Retired Knitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662288640032813770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-16002191213481251772019-09-05T18:48:57.543-07:002019-09-05T18:48:57.543-07:00Arrgh!!

She was frightened and as i tried to calm her fears, she said "but they'll EAT ME!" She was so sweet! She's now married with three children of her own.Jeannenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-52996612915446543282019-09-05T12:28:56.223-07:002019-09-05T12:28:56.223-07:00My uncle was a dairy farmer.

He said it was for the butterfat content, but I think it was really because the cow was just so pretty.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15236941724022074678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31671898.post-55782186639493592442019-09-05T02:36:23.815-07:002019-09-05T02:36:23.815-07:00Wow, what a fantastic fair you have!

Our "fair" is just a loud carnival with a petting zoo. Not a true fair at all. <br /><br />I feel your pain with the "development" next door. I dread the idea of our one neighbor every selling his acreage next door. Dan asked about it once and he said he'd never sell (not that we could afford it), but I'd hate to see somebody "developing" it someday.
