Hooray! The Anoka County Fair starts today. Every year the traffic slows on Hwy. 47 as I pass the fair. And I love it. The county fair is to July what Girl Scout cookies are to February. I love the slower traffic. I love driving by the fair and seeing the people enjoying the vestibular delights of the fair such as the Tilt-A-Whirl, the ferris wheel, and the Zipper. My brain can't take all that jostling but other people seem to enjoy it. The Tilt-A-Whirl was the first ride to arrive and the first one to get 
set up. The first food stand to arrive was the Tom Thumb donuts. Yippie! A week's worth of saturated fat in only one serving! Gotta have one of those. Beside the vestibular delights and the gastronomic delights, we can't forget the sounds and smells. Because the traffic is slow you can hear the sounds of the talent shows, the country music in the beer garden, the screams of kids on the rides, and the barking of the carnies. The open windows in the car also afford you the smells when you pass the dairy barn, the poultry barn, and the 4H building. When the motorcycles race, the tractors pull, or the demo derby gets going, I can hear the sounds of motors racing all the way to my house which is a good 5 miles north. The fair is a great place to people watch, meet and greet. I am not going the the Anoka fair this year but I will enjoy driving past, morning and night, every day from today through Sunday.
