The fair

This weekend will be pretty busy for us as we get ready for our county fair. We will have a booth at the fair, so someone will always have to be watching that; plus, our home school group is marching in the parade Sunday. We are going to throw candy and carry signs promoting home schooling. Some of the poster-slogan ideas like “Home schooling is legal and it works” and “Teaching kid’s Gods way” were rejected because we have a very public school oriented community and we are supposed to be gaining friends, not making enemies. The people of our town can be very touchy. Some people would do well to heed a sign like this: “Home schoolers rule- get used to it.”
But instead we’ll carry signs proclaiming “I’m home schooled-so was George Washington” and “Home scholar”. If you come up with any slogan ideas, let me know.

Also, we are all very thankful for the recent drop in temperature. The heat has moved on to other unfortunate victims and we are left rejoicing.

Have fun. Be sure to eat lots of that scrumptious, overpriced fair food.

The only food I bought at the fair was a piece of pie.
