Hopkinton State Fair - 2017


1. We started with the animal displays in the Fish and Game Building. (For folks not from NH, Fish and Game is a state bureaucracy which seems to be in charge of almost everything outdoors.)

3. We spent some time watching the dogs leap after the toy and go swimming.

4. I was more impressed with the huge portable barn; Kelly liked the horses.

8. The Demoltion Derby is a popular attraction at the fair.

9. They're all lined up ready to go.

10. As are the safety folks. Deliberate car accidents? What can possibly go wrong?

11. The cop is way cuter then the driver.

12. The rear view was all the cow (or bull, I didn't check) would show us.

13. I was warned not to get too close, and especially not to get close to the rear.

15. Compilation of some signs next to some of the animals. Who knew farmers had political agendas?

21. The hay maze.

22. I've always been fascinated by these. My cousins farm has one that was used 100 years ago to weigh hay wagons.

23. There is a spring mechanism under the platform that kinda looks like car leaf springs.
