I can't believe the damage Frances has wrought! I hope you're ok, Rhonda. Now they're talking about Hurricane Ivan heading for Florida!!! I also am so saddened about all of the people killed in Russia!
I did my 5 miles of walking/running. Also, did the Firm UB/LB workout and their abs video. Eating today was good, too. Had a wonderful tomato basil type salad for dinner - yummy!
That lawn will be there!!!

The fair was a new experience for us. Well, not so much for me (except that I haven't been to this one), because I was born and raised a country girl. Dh has only ever attended inter-city fairs. When we got there, we parked in a giant field and had to walk through freshly mowed hay. It smelled glorious and brought back so many memories! The boys wanted to head for the midway immediately, but I dragged them through the animal barns! They were pretty good about it, but they did start to get a bit antsy when I had to stop and savour the smell of the hay bales!! LOL But, they got a real kick out of the baby chicks and the pigs. Of course I had to remind them of Wilbur and the fair (Charlotte's Web) so they were hunting for spider webs.
Dh took them to play on all of the farm equipment and I got to spend an hour or so touring the exhibits of knitting and art. (Never made it to the baking and cooking). I simply must make an effort to enter items next year. I'm sure it would be fun to win some ribbons.
Finally we hit the midway. The boys went on the giant slide, the ferris wheel (I thought Max would be terrified, but he loved it) and the flying airplane! After our purchase of cotton candy and candy apples (which I haven't even had one bite of) we decided it was time to leave. We all agreed that next year we will make a full day of it!
We dropped everyone at home and I headed off to visit dd at the hospital. While there they shut the elevators down because they had an emergency on the 4th floor (psych ward), so ended up taking the stairs down! I think I'll take bonus points for that!
Just tucking into some lamb kabobs, greek salad and boiled new potatoes for dinner and I'm starving.
Have a wonderful evening ladies. I think I shall be sawing logs soon!
