The big end of summer event in Vermont is The World's Fair in Tunbridge, Vermont. Gardeners and farmers coddle their best livestock and potential prize winning crops all summer to enter in the fair come September. Even the rainy weather doesn't keep real Vermonters away from partaking in the thrill of winning a blue ribbon for Bessie the cow, or that giant pumpkin that has been fertilized to be the biggest yet.
The fair opened yesterday morning with rain and unfortunately rain is the main event again today. My husband, who is at the fair from 7am until midnight throughout the fair, says you haven't seen mud until you've been to the Tunbridge fair this year. Yikes! The good news is the weekend looks glorious, so I am sure the crowds will be out to eat the food, ride the rides, and pet the farm animals. Even I decided to wait until better weather prevails to see how my entries fared. See you at the fair!
