Things are picking up at the fair grounds this morning. The Budweiser Clydesdale semi's came in. They set up the stalls, all of the horses got a bath before they were put into their respective stall. These are not the big team but appear to be a younger group of horses, still in training. We will see them perform on Saturday. The food vendors were busy setting up. There will be most anything you want from hot dogs, BBQ beef & pork as well as turkey legs. There is a hog on a log. Not sure just what that is but I will check it out tomorrow. The crafters and those selling all types of merchandise are setting up in the big building. So it looks like a nice show in the making.
The first photo is of a group playing blue grass which is not unusual for a show of this type. They will be performing on stage as well as various other places and even like this in the camping area.
There are a lot of older units here, like this one. I also saw some GMC units come in. One looked like new. I will check them out tomorrow and get some photos.
We are limited on power here, only 20A and that is shared with about 5 or 6 other units so the use of electric heaters is limited or someone will trip the circuit breaker and someone will have to get up and go to the end of the line and reset it. Not me, in the middle of the night. Will just use the furnace and let the 110 maintain the batteries, etc.
The day was sunny but cool. You needed a jacket if you were outside very long. Supposed to be about the same tomorrow.
