Fairly hot
I actually have nothing interesting to report from our trip to the fair other than it was hot.
Seriously, Sunday was like the hottest day of the year, and most of our energy was spent trying not to die from the heat.
We went back Monday so the kids could ride rides. And because they’re young and therefore stupid, they don’t know to be totally petrified of heights and so beseeched me to ride the Sky Ride with them. “Be strong,” I told myself, “and don’t transfer your anxieties to your kids.”
Luckily, I spotted an old friend on the ground that helped calm me down:
