I love to people watch and there is no better place than a fair. Of course, the Minnesota State Fair has far more viewing opportunities. However with about 100,000 in attendance for the week, our local Crow Wing County fair is not too bad.
I can take in the latest fashions and certainly see "what not to wear"/ Interesting hairstyles in all 
colors, tattoos, piercings and T-shirt slogans abound. There are clothes that I would never wear out of the house ( or in the house).
People come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. What a diverse group! Some stare, some stop to chat and others are on a quest for freebies. The politicians are meeting and greeting. The polka band is playing on the Mills Free Stage, while many dance.
Ah, another county fair........

Kathleen...At least they had a good band. My wife and I entered a dance contest at Iron world in Chisholm. We took 3rd place in the Polka. We were thrilled!!
Ho Yea...I almost forgot...only 3 people entered. :)
Kathleen, it is hard to believe that the Fair is only a few weeks away! It always marks the end of our summer break and an upswing in the staging business.
People watching is one of my favorite activities! Put on the shades, kick back, and enjoy a smoothie while scoping out all the interesting Fair visitors!
William - congrats n your win - Iron World is really fun.
Kristina - My veggies had better grow fast or soon it will be snowing.
Hi Kathleen,
The fair is a great place for people watching, it makes you wonder what they think when their watching us....;)
Suzanne - I shudder to think - hope you are doing well.
