Governor Closes The Fair in Style



The grand finale to our One Day Vacation 17 Days in a Row came today when we were invited to be part of the Governor's entourage as she "Did the Puyallup." I didn't realize that she is from Auburn. She also got Fair going tips from her mom. She had quite the tour today including serving scones, meeting the 10 year old girl who grew the prize-winning giant pumpkin, and getting on board with the chicken mascot as part of the Fair's daily parade. We are sad the the festivities are over already.
Here are the highlights from The Fair 2007:
* Driving a Toyota Tundra on the dirt track behind the Green Gate

*Sponsoring a child in Africa after visiting World Vision's African Experience

*Figuring out to buy our water from the Mountain Mist and Crystal Springs booths rather than the food vendors

*Seeing the Governor "Do the Puyallup"

*Discovering that eating Fair food every day can be done without having to buy bigger pants

*Getting box seats at the rodeo

*Hearing from readers about their best Fair Experiences

*Finding out for sure that Happy is Good

Thanks for sharing the fun with us!
