The food me, Kay, & Rebecca got there. Clockwise from the top: Kay's lemonade and french fries, Rebecca's deep fried pickle chips and deep fried Reese's cup (!!!), my funnel cake and cherry soda. i got to keep the mug but unfortunately at some point i set it down and forgot to pick it up again (i think during the indigo dyeing demonstration), darn. :/
Steam Powered Tractor! Had an awesome whistle and everything!
One of the first things we saw when we walked in was this marvelous double ferris wheel. Rebecca & i subsequently decided we totally were going to ride it! :D

The lone lime green sphere lies in wait, deflated.
Open Sphere, Insert Ferret.
Continue to insert ferret until fully enclosed in sphere.
Instruct ferret to plug ears and inflate sphere.
Continue until the sphere is fully inflated.
Notice that ferret has butterfly cap & confiscate.
Hold hat hostage in the event the ferret has notions of stealing sphere & hiding it under couch.
Wheeeeeeee!
Upside down in sphere!

And having gotten into the sphere, what does the ferret do? Why, knit, of course!
Still knitting!
Indigo Dyeing! A very shiny process by which the yarn is green in the dyeing pot, but upon pulled out & exposed to the air, oxidizes into a loverly shade of indigo (and not really shown properly here)!
