This Has Nothing to do with SAS, but....

Today Mom, Memi and I headed to the Wilson County Fair. The only thing I really wanted to
do was get some roasted corn and play bingo. We never found Bingo, but roasted corn was freaking amazing. We made our way over to the rides and rode the carousel - of course. Afterward, we saw some people gathered around a pen for some sort of race. Turns out it was Capuchin monkeys riding on the back's of dogs. I must say that was the first time I have ever seen that. The highlight of the day (and maybe the low point as well) came when we found a free petting zoo. We got a bag of carrots and went on to see the cow, goats, llamas, and a camel. Everything was going great until the llamas. First off, llamas are probably the weirdest cutest animals ever. Well this one brown was following us around. I was feeding him and then got out my camera and took a couple pictures. Then right as I was putting my camera away, the lovely llama sneezed on me. Yep, sneezed on me. Gross, but soooo funny.
There is a picture of the lovely llama
The rest of the day was not that eventful. We found the rabbit and poultry pen. There are some HUGE rabbits! But they are so cute and so soft. There are also some weird looking chickens/rosters.
So in the end at the fair we rode a carousel, fed a camel, watched a monkey race on a dog's back, ate some roasted corn, saw some weird looking chickens and got sneezed on my a camel. All in all a successful day at the fair.
