Life Isn't Fair

Fields of colorful cotton candy, clowns on stilts, fire breathers, contortionists, magicians, ring toss, whack-a-mole, guess my weight booth, 20 foot long snakes, tutus, puppets, fortune tellers, live music, monkeys, animals wearing clothes, pie eating contests, belly dancers, bearded women, and free rides. This was the fair of our dreams. I'm sad to say the Utah State Fair was not this fair. I really wish I could say that the fair was amazing .... but I would be lying. However, we did not let the disappointment dampen our spirits.

The fair skyline

Fairground food is made for the rich and famous so we opted for the value menu at Taco Bell ... and I must add, that my Mom and Dad's last meal at Taco Bell was while they were dating at BYU ... that's ≈ 30 yrs ago. We were proud to reunite them with this celestial food.
