Ohio State Fair 2011

This was the first time I have ever and I mean ever been to the Ohio State Fair and I can say, it wasn't that bad. We decided to go after church and was going to wait until it was later in the day, but since we knew the temperature wasn't going to change much we headed out during the early afternoon. The weather was hot but nothing that was excruciating and there were plenty of places to stay cool. Since I had never been to the fair, I did not know what to expect and I can say after spending six hours there we still did not see everything the fair has to offer. Some of the cool parts I liked that my niece and my nephews did too was the obviously the animals as well as the Park section. This is where they had all the great things about Ohio's parks on display and during this summer I have really begun to enjoy some of what Ohio's State parks have to offer. We got to see beavers, owls, skunks, groundhogs, and a bobcat up close (closer than the zoo) and it was really cool to see kids react. We also rode a ton of rides, well the kids did at least, and it was cool because they did not need an adult to ride with them this year. I got to see some of the vendors there and see my first roller girl game/derby (don't know the official game). It is definitely worth going back to again that is for sure.
