Living My Retired Life

 Sorry for the delay....and internet reception seems to be spotty, and it's RAINING!  Perhaps it'll keep the crowd down.....anyhow, let's get started!   Decided to start off in the exposition building.  It's pretty much the same thing every year.  It's all inside one large building now (more on that later), and I only made it half way through before the strollers and wagons got to me....outside I go!

 Hey ol' buckeroos, been a long time....Today is Wisconsin State Fair day for me.  I'd like to write about one of my favorite places as it is and as what I remember it to be.  I worked in the buidings and grounds department from the summer of 1979 to after the fair in 1984, and again from the fair in 1988 to shortly after the fair in 1989.  But I had been attending the fair since long before that, and I intend to share some of those memories as well.  Along this trip down my memory lane I'll introduce you to some of the people I crossed paths with here at the fair.  I looked forward to comments--and corrections!--as I spend the day taking in Wisconsin State Fair 2024.  Grounds open at 10--should have my first post shortly after.  Hope you're along for the ride.....
