Yes, we have a county fair in Los Angeles…

Filed under: — stan @ 9:29 pm

On Sunday afternoon, Susan and I went out to Pomona to the Los Angeles County Fair. Neither of us had been to it in years, so we thought it might be a fun thing to do.

We saw lots of animals, which is perhaps a bit surprising, since there is very little agriculture going on in Los Angeles County. On the other hand, ‘very little’ is not ‘none’, so there are farmers here, and they have crops and animals and such. So that was fun and interesting.

On the other hand, they did have a booth selling body jewelry, which is fitting for L.A.

We went to see the crafts and food, too. After looking at the baked goods, I’m totally going to enter my perfect blueberry muffins next year.

We had some pretty good barbecue for dinner, and then we got ice cream from Dr. Bob’s. It was a fun afternoon.

    I never would have dreamed there was a county fair in LA! Definitely enter your recipe next year. I had always missed the arts displays at the MN State Fair, but made it a priority this year. I was so inspired, and totally want to enter something (who knows what) next year.

    My very favorite things about the L.A. County Fair are the animals. That’s what I spend the most time looking at and photographing. We are going this weekend and I can’t wait. Last year they had an awesome rodent exhibit with everything from groundhogs to a capybara!
