State Fair

Alpacas, piglets, puppies, ducklings.

  

Lemonade.

  

Carousel, roller coasters, slow train cars, slides.

   

Lemonade.

  

Miriam screaming violently on "caterpillar coaster." Ride stopping early. Miriam being lifted from ride by worker, who is saying, "I know you're scared, baby." Miriam being handed off to Ethan. Miriam looking at Ethan, wide grin spreading across her face, and an excited, "That was FUN!!!" blurting from her mouth.

   

Lemonade.

  

Dancing wildly for Grandma and Grandpa in front of the Indian flutist and Neil Young cover artist.

  

Lemonade.

   

And a quiet, sleepy ride home.
