I think I know the fair you mean, and cannot remember the name, is it in the area of North Conway? Cars are backed up for miles just to get in. 4H groups would be there with all their animals. All the fattening food trucks selling all the junk food. All the barns full of animals, chickens, goats, geese. Yes, good times.
My granddaughter shows her dog at the fairs so we have been to the Big E, the Stratham Fair, (love those Lobster Rolls the ladies make), and then there is a huge fair on the Mass border - and once again I cannot remember the name. Yes, our northern fairs were always in the fall, probably because we were recovering from winter in the springtime.
Of all the things I miss, I miss my brain the most!
They were great years, but I am also enjoying my retirement years in TV.
