We spent the day at the State Fair of Texas. This is something you have to see to believe. Our favorite building is the Arts and Crafts Building, where they judge arts and crafts, including cooking. Today they were judging the baked goods!

Also today was the rabbit show, and the Junior Beef Cattle day.

Add in some entertainment, the new car buildings, and Big Tex, and you have a fun time.

While I've heard "A Prairie Home Companion" from the Minnesota State Fair, and it sounds like fun, I think you need to check your stats!

Minnesota is said to have the largest average daily attendance, but Texas is just a little behind it and runs twice as long.

It IS said to have the largest midway of any fair anywhere, but personally, although I took pictures of it, I rarely spend any time (and no money) on the midway.
