Del Mar Fair

Dennis and I made our annual trek to the Del Mar fair today. The first thing I noticed, after observing the long lines, was that they had turned Don Diego into a spaceman. The Don Diego building was now a spaceship. Then I saw that the theme this year was "Out of this World."

Anyway, we had our obligatory cinnamon roll (we split it) and I had my morning coffee finally at 11 a.m. That's because before we went to the fair I had to fast for a lab blood test. We walked through the plant exhibits, then Dennis wanted his usual homemade potato chips, so we split that, too. Then we got thirsty, so Dennis had a lemonade and I had my once-a-year Orange Julius. In other words, the fair is getting to be a little repetitive--for us anyway. We couldn't even find one new gadget to buy.

So we did the fair in about 3 hours and came home. Either the fair is boring or we are.
