North Dakota State Fair

We had never been to a state fair so we took this opportunity to visit the North Dakota Fair.  We went one evening after work, so we only had a couple hours, but the weather was great and the crowd was small and we had a fun time.

There were all sorts of activities and displays.  Farm animals of all sorts.














4-H Clubs from across the state displayed their wares.




Displays for children.


Go-karts


Entertainment



Midway rides






A mechanical bull



An early settler's area







A garden plot of ND's most bountiful crops


canola


pretty tall sunflowers


Food


Games



and, of course, all the huge farm equipment you can possibly want.




A tractor for me.


Hubby's next lawn equipment purchase.



We have heard of fairs in other states that were so crowded you really could not enjoy yourself but the ND fair is so very different.  The fairgrounds cover a large area of land, there are not as many people and the weather is fantastic.  If you are ever in the area, I recommend a visit to the State Fair in ND.
