Photos from the Fair

So first of all, I must report that yes, they did have churros, and they made them fresh, piping the dough into the hot oil. And they were delicious.

And this is a corn dog. And I love them. And I did not have one due to limited stomach capacity and prioritization of same. By the way, I had the most delicious, sweet-jeebus-on-a-flat-wooden-stick, dee-lish-usssss corn dog ever at this roadside drive-up burger stand in Delta Junction after my Donnelly Dome hike with M. I don't recall the name of the place, but it's making my mouth water again just thinking about it. Seriously.

And this is a funnel cake. Again, I did not have one. Sorry, Jaykay. I know I seem to be failing you on so many counts today, but the fire-roasted corn and the giant churro had to take precedence.

Now here are the photos!

The current top giant cabbage, 43.03 pounds (that's a quarter for scale):

Some prize-winning zucchini:


Here is a veggie monster. Isn't he cute?


Another veggie monster. I love them!
