Fall county fairs are new to me. I am used to fairs in August, even our local one is. Cooler temperatures make more sense for people and animals though.

Lovely reflection. My daughters recently showed chickens at the county fair, and I was in awe at how timeless it all felt. So few spaces for community gathering are left anymore.

Yes, and the best of it happens there. It is awesome that you encouraged them to do that!

Beautiful writing! I’m a Gideon and several times a year I attend fairs to help man our Gideons booth to offer free New Testaments to those who are interested. Everything you have said in this article is true, in the deepest sense.
