Alameda County Fair

I went to the county fair today. The kids are away for the summer so I went alone, with the plan to relax, eat some fair food, enjoy the live music, and of course, take some pictures.

My desire all week was to get some shots of the Ferris wheel, but when I got there, I figured I'd take advantage of the great afternoon sunlight first....then get the Ferris wheel when it got darker. I was walking around when one of the booth workers asked if I was a photographer...like for National Geographic. I told him I was taking pictures for the post office (ala, America's Most Wanted) and asked if I could take his picture. He was a nice guy....even gave me a free dart to throw at the balloons, with no obligation.
