Yep. That's Big TEX and this was the first time in over 30 years I have been to the State Fair!
So many memories. Watching them make saltwater taffy,
The SkyWay, the rides, the lagoon with the swan paddle boats, Fleischer's Corn Dogs, all the exhibits. It was so much fun. And of course, we had to try all (or at least some) of the new fried foods. Fried frito pie, Fried Margaritas,
...Fried Beer (My husband said it was 'nasty').
And topped it off with a visit to the Vietnam Veterans's Memorial. Placed a flag by my cousin Ronnie's name and Donnie Tidwell's name.
