The Fair

Fall in Cobb County means the North Georgia State Fair is in town. Now that the boys are tall enough for rides, we can do something other than eat food and watch people, although we did that, too.

Henry wanted to ride the train, so that's where we started. After waiting in line for ten minutes, it was finally Henry's turn. "There's one seat left," the carney said. But it was in the back. And Henry wanted to sit in the front. "I'll wait for the next ride," he said. So we waited another few minutes. Waiting was worth it. He smiled and waved his way around the track.

John's first ride was on a boat. He was a little spooked when the ride started, but Henry was there to help him along. John got the hang off it. By the next ride, it was the stopping - not the starting - that made him cry. "More! More!"
