Afterwards we walked through the sheep, cow, poultry, rabbit, and pig barns.
We caught a raptor show which had some awesome stories about great horned owls, which are super aggressive, knocking hunters out of their own deer stands and stealing pet chihuahuas. And I thought I couldn't like owls anymore than I did already. Best animals ever.
From there we sat in on a draft horse show, visited the bee keepers, and chatted with the master gardeners. Reuben and Miriam both agreed watching the baby chicks hatch in the incubator was their favorite thing to see.
And while I was tempted to leave with a goat or at least a few of the fluffy chicks, we only spent $2.50 for a bottle of water. I love the fair!
Miriam was at the fair too but running around so fast that I never caught her in a picture.

I love the idea of an agricultural fair. That would include the best part of the fair for me. I love the animals and used to believe that I would someday have a farm with horses, dogs and cats,maybe a few goats or sheep. But Dad feels like two dogs and a bird are enough.
Sounds fun to me. I was just looking at how many goat cheese farms there are in Marin County (north of SF).
