Late summer and early fall are the season for county and state fairs. It is a great place to take children and adults of all ages because there is something for everyone.
Rides, games, fair food, the largest pumpkin, the best apple pie, quilts, and lots of animals. From the most handsome rooster to greased pig races to the strongest ox or the fluffiest bunny, there is an animal for everyone.
This week the Montgomery County and Queen Anne’s County fairs are underway, swing by for a visit and a whole hay bale full of fun.
