There were a lot of people there that day. Thankfully we got a good parking spot.






We packed a lunch and got stamped in our pursuit of it. See the cow?





There were a lot of vegetables and things at the "John Deere Agriculture Building".

They had plenty of beautiful draft horses at the fair.



Dad enjoyed seeing this type of horse equipement.
