A couple of weeks ago we headed to the Utah State Fair on a double date with my brother Scott and his wife Em. A huge shout out to my sister-in-law Mary who hooked us up with free tickets. The fair wasn't quite everything I remember as a child. We often went as a family for free on the night my mom went to judge some of the sewing creations. But like always my favorite part was the baby animals. I don't know if you can tell in the photo above but the calf in the picture was just a week old and smaller than our family dog.
Another one of our favorite exhibits was the produce room. We got to see a display on bees and some huge pumpkins. Who knows...maybe next year we will grow something for this contest.
This photo below was taken for my brother Jeff who is becoming a master welder. It is the front of a car that is turned into some kind of massive bug. We saw lots of creative art projects....as well as some that weren't quite so creative. In the 4-H room we saw someone had been awarded a ribbon just for building legos...and it was just a kit they had assembled.
We didn't indulge in any fair food...instead we headed to the Blue Iguana to use a Groupon. Blue Iguana is located in downtown Salt Lake and they are known for their Moles. Seth and I each ordered one and they were delicious.

That picture on Seth on the sheep's head is priceless!
I remember the Blue Iguana - good food, hole in the wall!
