SIMPLE PLEASURES: The State Fair



I've always loved going to the fair...back home we'd go to the Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles... roasted corn and those little tiny Cinderella Donuts with coffee at the end of the evening, thunderous turkey legs walking through the Midway and the music... all for the love of the music. Classic rock and country, Credence Clearwater Revival and Three Dog Night...Johnny Cash 3 times, meeting him at the end of a concert and still hanging on to the guitar pick he gave me a lifetime ago.

Now I go to the Arizona State Fair. Big Indoor Colosseum, Bret Michaels, Sheryl Crow. The Midway's the same and I will always love watching the hot dog pig races. Some things never change, these are the simple pleasures in life.
