Georgia State Fair
This weekend, I participated in the inaugural Georgia State Fair 5K. In my race packet were free admissions tickets, so later we returned to check out the festivities. We saw a water-skiing squirrel, racing pigs, and many Maconites (which are a carnival act themselves). Some old ladies gave us their left over ride tickets so we enjoyed a few rides as well.
The fair is not as big as the Georgia National Fair, but its also not subsidized with tax dollars. That means I can enjoy the atmosphere without thinking about how high the student/teacher ratios at my child’s school have to rise in order to put it on.
