The Great MN Get Together

The temp reached 97 on Monday but that did not stop the Alm/Knight day at the fair. This year we made it there a little earlier in the day, around 2pm. The warm weather did not stop us from enjoying a full 7 hours at the Great MN Get Together! The day did, however, include a few more drinks and cold treats and a few less fried hot foods.


 Always the highlight of the fair is the Giant Slide and this year was no different. You cannot see Jameson but he is sitting behind Ben and he was all smiles. After the first trip down he was off and running for the stairs before Trevor could even pay for their tickets.


 After we watched the lumber Jack show Ben told Trevor he wanted to climb those ropes. At first Trevor was not sure what he was talking about but then he spotted the Boy Scouts of America's mini ropes course. I thought for sure he would get scared when he reached the top of the cargo net but he proved me wrong. He completed the course, trusted the guys helping and was all smiles throughout.

 It finally started to cool off when the sun went down so we enjoyed the last couple hours with more comfortable temps and a few more treats. It was another successful year at the Fair!
