Our friend Krista, and her boyfriend Danny, made the trip from Omaha to spend the weekend and attend the fair. Krista hadn't attended the fair in years and Danny had never been - so they were in a bit of shock at all the delicious (and artery clogging) food and drinks. We spent a few hours walking around the fairgrounds. We stopped to see Captain Hook whose owner claimed him to be the World's Smallest Horse. He also had a giant billboard that said ALIVE. I don't think people were questioning that fact, but the sign piqued our interested so we had to go in and check it out. He was small - but we were more entertained by the Harper size saddle! The highlight of the trip for Ross was the Craft Beer tent - a new addition in 2012. Harper and Ross enjoyed a beverage together outside the tent. As always, the fair was good people watching. Harper took it all in - she thought the crowds were awesome. We also thought the crowds were awesome and spotted nearly 200 jazzies....and likely only 15 people of them actually needed to ride them through the fairgrounds. This year's tagline for the Iowa State Fair was "Nothing Compares" and the fair lived up to its promise.
