One year we watched a lively bunch of little tiny ones running around as fast as they could chase each other - right over the top of Mama while she layed there trying to rest. It was so hilarious I laughed 'til I cried!<br />The brown calf (Jersey?) is just what I was looking for last summer to get pictures of because they have the sweetest faces. I finally found one and got a great close up shot of his face but he had a big yellow number tag on his ear so it kind of wrecked the whole effect!RainGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14071017261791897927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1117318316893332386.post-5729976484527193812009-07-30T18:03:08.275-04:002009-07-30T18:03:08.275-04:00What a fun post, makes me miss the fair back in WV...What a fun post, makes me miss the fair back in WV.MYCLOSETGARDENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07157056684574457244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1117318316893332386.post-58926319851940387092009-07-30T17:21:33.267-04:002009-07-30T17:21:33.267-04:00That looks like so much fun. :) The fair here happ...That looks like so much fun. :) The fair here happens in the fall so it's really fun to see your pictures.

There are 3 I can think off all in castles but they are super duper expensive to get into. I haven't ever been to Shane's Castle or Glenarm Castle but our Carrickfergus Castle does a pretty good Lammass fair which we've been too a few times. No big rides or animals sor much food though - we are wick here....:(<br />Look like you had a good time though and thanks for sharing.
