The Butler County Fair was a thing to behold. There were pigs, cows, horses, sheep, goats, rabbits, chickens, rides, games, funnel cakes, candy apples, lemonade, gyros, the usual fare of fairgoers, and unbelievably well-attended truck pulls.

I took some pictures and put them on my flickr.

Happy July 4th, America.

The fair was incredible. Even the dinner menu was spectacular.

The chickens cry because they’re afraid of bring judged. It’s sad, really.
