Douglas County Fair, Alexandria

The Douglas County Fair is this week. I found this great photo on the internet, showing the fairgrounds, the racetrack, at the top, Lake Cowdry on the right with Taylor and Stoney, Lake Latoka on the left, the tank farm. It's the same every year, but still fun to go and see the exhibits I've seen since I was a kid - the giant water tap under the grandstand, 4H exhibits, even the "baby rattlers" in the Viking Sportsmen's building. They are something like this, where you look into the box and see: baby rattlers. I like to stand there and watch other people fall for it.
