Quick check-in before I head for the Fair. We don't open until 9 but I will put up a few signs in the Ag. Hall, pet my cow

and then have my annual opening-day breakfast with the Fair President,William, who will be worrying about weather. So far it looks good with only a slight chance of a shower on Sunday, the day we close.
Aside from breakfast today, I will absolutely not eat any Fair Food this year. I am always sorry when I do!
The dogs have been very well-behaved lately. Glen and Margo took them for a long walk yesterday. Jazz is in a bit of a snit but a few days of extra attention will put him back into his usual mellow mood. He spent most of yesterday guarding his morning biscuit from the two big dogs.
Got the big beef stew meat part done yesterday and need to throw in the veggies today so it can sit in the fridge overnight and mellow out. Tomorrow morning, I'll deliver it first thing to the Fair Office. Then the rest of the day is all mine!
(Dawdled over posting this and see we are underway. Have a ball, Tammy and Linda. I'll be there in spirit. Neighbour, Beth, if you left now, we could lunch at the Fair!)
