STATE FAIR DAY
It's been just under 40 years since this chick's been to the State Fair of Texas. I was in college dating a hot guy with a hot black Trans Am at the time....
This time, I was with my hot husband with a hot burgundy Minivan and our awesome family. And I've discovered.....eating Fletchers Corny Dogs and Fried Banana Pudding then riding some ride called "Don't Throw Up", is something left for the "younger" crowd to do. Yep, we stopped at Walmart on the way home and grabbed some Rolaids and Advil.
We now have a student-driver as a grandchild, so the Car Show was a must. It's almost impossible for me to think of Bella driving as I mostly only remember her and cars having a love-hate relationship as she was growing up. Motion-sickness was not her friend as a child.......TRUST ME.
And it was discovered that, although they lived in Dallas their whole lives, Chuck and his son Troy never went to the Fair together. So it only took (no comment) years for Father and Son to head to the fair and share a plate of kurd cheese together.
What an awesome vacation we are having so far. We may not be at the Ark in the middle of a hurricane, but we are somewhere better; with family. And isn't that what the Ark was all about anyway?
Family.
