Boulder County Fair Prelude

The Boulder County Fair is taking place this week. This is not our county but is the county that Chris' aunt and uncle live in. I like to scour around to find things to do that are fun and free or at least very close to it.

To celebrate the beginning of the Boulder County Fair, the Twin Peaks Rotary Club hosted a "chuck wagon" breakfast last Saturday. There was a bit of confusion on the price for the breakfast but Grandmother was gracious and paid for the breakfast anyway. There were pancakes, eggs and sausage. Because we got there right at the end, it ended up as an "all you can eat" breakfast.

After breakfast we headed up to Main Street to watch the parade. It was Elianna's first parade. She was a little unsure at the beginning but at the end she knew enough to grab that candy. In fact, if you ask her what her favorite part of the parade is, she will hands down say the "candy".  In addition to grabbing candy, she made sure to waive at each "float" as it went by.

It was your typical small town parade with horses, goats, cars, motorcycles and the local restaurant. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our time in Longmont watching the parade.
