Default State Fair report

We spent 6 hours at the fair - the longest we have ever spent! The whole
time that I was walking, I was either pulling a wagon with 2 or 3 kids, or
trying to run to keep up with DH, who took turns pulling the wagon!

I conservatively figured 210 minutes of walking, not counting time spent
waiting for kids on rides, or eating lunch.

I ate:

1 1/2 pieces of fudge - 4 pts (who knew that was so high?)
1/3 stick cotton candy - 1 pt
bite of elephant ear (about cookie size) 2 pts (guessing here)
1 1/2 ears corn with butter 3 pts
french fries (just a few) 2.5

for a total Fair intake of 12.5. and output of 8 activity points. Not a
bad trade off!

We all had an absolutely marvelous time! Even if my quilts didn't win any
ribbons. :-(


Sounds like a fun day, even without a ribbon!
