Too bad the sheep shows are later on in the weeks.
Ticket will be $20 unless I get one at Kroger's or sommat before hand @ $15.
...don't expect to purchase anything really expensive. Sodas usually cost about $2 each or $5 with free refills (it might have changed in the last three years oO; )
Food... Foot long corn dogs were usually $3. And they're so good *_* Funnel cakes, elephant ears. Lamb barbeque plates were, like, $5. And it's most awesome. Local honey vendors in the Virginia World building... fresh fudge. Nifty things all over.
Hopefully Heritage Village will have the usual wool demos (carding, spinning, weaving).
I can't wait, if you can't tell :P But I can't let myself have a sensory overload, it'll make me headache-y the rest of the week.
I miss showing :\ Free entry, free rides on weekends. You don't have to worry about looking like an asshole for not tipping the restroom folks because there are exhibitor restrooms. With showers, haha.
(I'd friggen love to be able to go on the following saturday as well... sheep shows, quarter horse show!! Two things I definitely want to see. Not sure how my finances will stand up to another fair!day, though. Not to mention I'll have a sculpture project looming above me after this Friday and then all of my other classes, gaaaah!)

DUDE it's friggen comfortable/cool at 70, why do you need it at 50? T-T
Not a happy kitty. In fact, a very bitchy kitty.
