It's NC State Fair Ham Biscuit Time Again!

I got "invited" to help out at the Kiwanis ham-biscuit booth again this year....it was a beautiful day. Parked near Carter-Finley stadium in the "free parking" and hiked over to the fairgrounds. Not a bad walk on a cool morning!

The booth is pretty much always in exactly the same spot, so easy to find amongst the 100's of other booths.  Big crowd on a Thursday!

I took my usual spot at the window.  Chilly outside, but toasty warm inside the booth.

Neighbor Dick loves to treat everyone to ice-cream.  He went to the NC State creamery booth and got us all our favorites.  Mint-choc chip.  Hmmmm.  It was waaay too much!

The rest of the crew.  We worked well together!

A lady from the funnel-cake booth came by and handed us this ridiculous pile of flour/sugar/grease.  Yummm!  Well, it was yum until it got a bit cool, then it was just yucky...haha.  We would have eaten more of it except we were all full of ice cream!!   What's a fair trip unless you eat disgusting gooey stuff, right.  Oh yeah, we were supposed to be working!  Never fear, no one walked away from the booth biscuit-less if they ordered one!

That's about it for the day...another crew came on-board at 5pm, so we were free to leave.  Sights and sounds leaving the fairgrounds in the evening were very true to the State Fair theme.

A lovely day indeed!!
