Nevada County Fair

We went to the fair on Friday and Sunday with friends. I love going to this fair. It brings back soo many memories. We looked at the horses and chickens and all the other animals and ate ALOT of good food. The corn dogs are great! Picked up a few christmas gifts along the way at some booths. We passed on the rides, it seems to affect us differently as we get older :) All and all it was a good time.
Me with the palmeno horse.
Look at the necks on these horses. I think they are clydesdales (sp?) actually.

You might be a redneck.......

if you enjoy watching people demolish their cars! Well Matt and I find this really fun to watch. But I hope we are not considered rednecks! This is the Destruction Derby at the Nevada County Fair. I have been going to these since I was little and I took Matt for the first time a few years ago. He loved it. Here are a few of the highlights of last night. The beginning of the "race". The cars don't look too bad. Matt picked # 13, the yellow and orange car, from the beginning.
The radiators were usually the first to blow!
# 13 just crushed # 1 million! Can you believe there was a person inside! Brave or stupid I am not sure which.
these cars were the two that went till the very end and the black one was super fast! # 13 won because the black car went out of bounds for too long. Usually the race goes till only one car is moving.
Look at the orange car......its crushed!
We had a great time and will probably go next year. Anybody else?
