The Great Minnesota Get-Together, also known as the
Minnesota State State Fair. |
 |
|
Cow milking is a favorite for city kids. Country kids already know how. |
 |
 |
|
Plenty to eat at the fair. Just ask Paula or anyone else there. |
 |
 |
|
Imagine that, pickle on a stick.
Who would pay for that? Lots did. |
 |
|
One exhibitor had furniture made of
huge pieces of natural wood. |
 |
|
Machine Age Lamps was
there again. A popular place to buy home decorations made of old hardware. |
 |

|
Horses are a big attraction in the
Coliseum. In this case, Six Horse Hitch. Beautiful animals.
One good horse can cost as much as $40,000. Then you have to feed and care for it. |
|
 |
|
|
Who would have thought of selling
olives on a stick? |
|
 |
|
|
The Cosgrove Stage had dancing of all
kinds. |
|
 |
|
|
Merchants by the hundreds showed their
wares. |
|
 |
|
|
Then there was the log
rolling......watch it, someone could get wet! |
|
 |
 |
|
A water mist is great on hot days.
Pronto pups on a stick are good eating too. |
 |
| Lots of free bands for entertainment and dancing. |
Quote of the day:
This is an amazing place. Mark
