Alameda County Fair Turns 100

Forty years ago I went with a date to see the fair. Unfortunately I got cramps and was sick on the curb and we never went in. When I found out Thursday the fair is 100 this year I knew I had to make another attempt to go for the first time. Rick Springfield had a concert at 7 p.m. and I danced to his music though can't say I'm a fan of him. I enjoyed walking all over the expansive grounds to see the exhibits, barn animals, bunnies, chickens, etc., and loved every minute of it on a mild summer evening in Pleasanton, California. I stayed until 9:45 p.m. and managed to find my way back to my car at the right entrance. I love doing events on centennials and other big anniversaries and this was no exception. I highly recommend this old fashioned county fair.

The definition has already been updated this morning. Congratulations San Francisco Giants, 2010 World Series Champions! I just passed out Giants cups Saturday at our annual reunion. Good timing.

The Victorian Era
I shop for bargains at noon and never go into the furniture section of the store which opened up recently on the upper level. I went today and here's a painting by Jan Martin I found for a song. It's reminiscent of Watt and Olive. It's absolutely stunning and in perfect condition. Why someone let it go I don't understand.
