Officially Summer

You know it is OFFICIALLY summer in Utah when you see the Carnival of Fun roll on into town. We were on our way home from playing in the mud at Papa Rock's house when Xanny spied the Ferris wheel. It was early on a weekday, so the crowds were fairly tame and I only had six bucks in my purse, so the damage would be minimal. Do you know how much you can get for $6 now days at the Carnival of Fun? ...

You can get exactly one ride in the front seat of the dragon roller coaster and one spot on the prancing pony carousel -- barefoot. (If you're going, you might as well go white trash, don't you think?) You can also get just as much as any real adult can take of the place!

Six dollars won't buy any cotton candy but it will buy you plenty of "eye candy" -- via your 50mm: 1.4.


Summer is official on. Let the games begin.

Now the gloves are off! You are setting the "mommy bar" pretty darn high. Madeleine still remembers the one and only time we went to Chucky Cheese--and I started shaking and we ran out of the place after about 10 minutes! So hats off to you for braving a Utah County street fair!

Yeah, I last at the fair exactly as long as it took you to read this post. In and out and nobody gets hurt. Besides, Marco says Chucky Cheese is just a boot camp for Vegas. Start them when they're little and they will head for the slots by the time they're 12.
