The week following
the last day of school
the fair would arrive in our little city

the last day of school
the fair would arrive in our little city
set up in a parking lot
and stay for about 10 days
we would all head out
on "Bracelet Day"
it was the cheapest day to go
and we would stay for hours and hours
I remember one year
one of my besties ~ Tracey & I
rode the Zipper all night long
we would get off the ride
and head to the back of the line
again....
of course we had other favorites too
like the Tilt A Whirl, the Scrambler,
the Spider and the Hurricane
then there were the games
trying to win one of these
of course we would end up with a bevy of"small" gifts
back scratcher anyone??
seeing a local fair nowbrings back so many good memories
carefree days
full of sugar
and all things that are not so good for you
I still love a carousel
and being kissed at the top of the ferris wheel.
I remember getting stopped at top
and waiting in anticipation
if the one you were with
the "boy du jour"
would make his move...
now I do not have that to worry about
as I am guaranteed a kiss at the top
every time!
wishing you sweetness
and thanking you for letting me
reminisce a bit...
