Assembly

It's been 5 years since I've been out to the Minnesota State Fair, but today was the day.  I tried to get a lot of images of people getting their fair on.

The french fries were flying out of this place, which keep the workers hopping, but the kid in the back doesn't seem to mind.

Spunky

I took this image on Thanksgiving Day 2009 and re-worked it today.  It was 27°F and I drove 100 miles that day.  My feet were popsicles by the time I got home!  I haven't been able to ride this year, so it's nice to reminisce. 

Medicinally

When a former photo lab employer was closing up shop, we had a little photography fun.  The owner had this "1st aid" bottle in his desk drawer, which I believe his dad had before him.  I thought it looked quite appropriate with the store closing signs in the windows.

I have to say, I think that was the best part-time job I ever had.  We got to practice photography and photo editing skills whenever there was downtime – which was most of the time.  It was just what I needed at that point in my life.

And no, we did not drink the 1st Aid that day.

Soulfully

I've seen this soulful creature wandering our neighborhood this summer.  Tonight it was in our front yard.

The Great Minnesota Get-Together starts Thursday.  Thought I'd get in the mood with an image from 2011.
