The Iowa State Fair has so much to offer in the way of opportunity, education, entertainment, celebration, and community spirit! It is a highlight of my year!

A beauty
Wonder what year? Wonder the brand? Wonder the stories this tractor has to tell? I will just bet someone at the IA State Fair knows.

A celebration of counties
A lot of folks are getting ready to make the journey to Des Moines to come to the State Fair. The grounds are looking beautiful and these flags went up today.
Young and old alike will be making these counties very proud of their accomplishments at this year's fair!

This RAM's watching ewe
It's funny how you never seem to notice things until you look through the camera lens. This guy's probably been overseeing the IA State Fair since 1015 when the Sheep Barn was constructed.
He is in the shade and that's a good thing because the temp today registered 95 degrees. The workers getting ready for fair time in four days had to think it was a lot hotter than that!

FFA rocks!
The Iowa State Fair is such a great event! I hope to blog and upload pictures about the Fair every day. The fair is four days away yet but already a flurry of activity.
The FFA organization has a beautiful little cottage on the grounds and some of the prettiest pictures around!
Hope you will follow along with me as I tour the 2008 IA State Fair.
