I went to the Minnesota State Fair with a friend this weekend. It was a lot of fun. I walked every street in the fairgrounds, and actually managed to get out with only a little bit of pink on me. I wore a nice Hawaiian shirt, a good hat, blue jeans, and everything it took to keep me shielded from the sun, so my nice Scandinavian skin managed to survive the experience. I ate a lot of food on a stick, checked out a lot of exhibit halls, and did a lot of people watching. There were a lot of people to watch, and I now find myself rather well peopled out. It was a good time. I’m glad I went. And I’m glad I got back home where there are less people to do peoply things.
