A Full Day at the Fair

I took today off because I wanted to work at the Sebelius booth with Trish. I went out a bit before 11 this morning and just got in a little bit ago.

I worked the booth until 3 and then wandered around visiting with people I knew for awhile. Greg came and got me and we went and had lunch/dinner. We left the fairgrounds. Frankly, there’s not much food there I want to eat – it’s just not very good overall.

I decided to go back to the fairgrounds to go to the hypnotist show at 5 p.m. It’s the first time I’ve been when they didn’t have more people waiting to be in the show than there was room for. But, he invited others who wanted to come up to do so and there was a full roster.

Ron Diamond is the hypnotist. He generally travels on the east coast, but this is his third year here. He’s a blast. I hope the fair has him back.

Tonight there was a young man who was just hilarious. He suggested that he was a spy and when he cued him this guy would hear his phone ring and it would be his shoe but there wouldn’t be an answer. This guy did that and kept going to the edge of the stage to get better signal. Then – the capper – he pulled the string taut, as if he were extending the antenna. It was hilarious. Diamond even broke down laughing and said he’d never seen that happen in all the years he’s been doing this.

This young man was in the 5 and the 7:30 show today. We talked to him briefly afterwards. He was really a neat kid.

I had numerous other fair experiences, but I think I’ll have to blog those tomorrow as I’m weary tonight. It’s time for beddy-bye.
