A good time was had by all at the North Carolina State Fair in Raleigh on October 13-22. The fair’s many
attractions included award-winning livestock, produce, music, rides, and of course, food! There were blue ribbon
pies to see, N.C. autumn apples to eat, and a large enough variety of sweets and fried treats to satisfy even the
pickiest set of tastebuds. For those daring food connoisseurs, there were even fried candy bars, a somewhat new
trend.
For those people who came to the Fair to actually see something, not just stuff themselves and ride the wild
rides, there was plenty to take advantage of. There were exhibits of practically every type of animal imaginable,
from brown bears to white tigers to N.C.’s finest pigs, goats, and cows. There was also a chance to work with new
computers, learn about the Presidential candidates, and the opportunity to see our state’s biggest pumpkin! (855
lbs!). Finally, for everyone who came to the Fair to have a really good time, there were musical acts for everyone,
from 70’s rock group War to country singer Lila McCann.
Teddy bear? I think not!
