Some local fun

The Yuma County fair is quite the affair.  Budweiser Clydesdales, Dalmatian and all made a showing.   There are classic livestock exhibits, cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens and rabbits.  Have you ever seen a lions head rabbit?  It looks a lot like a cat or a lhasa apso dog, weird.  One very creepy livestock display, carcasses.  Yeah, behind glass in a refrigerated case hang the actual dressed carcasses of animals the 4-H kids raised.  Educational I suppose but, ick.

Speaking of animals that somebody raised, we shared a yummy dinner of tri-tip and smoked sausage from the Yuma Rotary. Couldn’t pass up the funnel cake for dessert.

 

Then there was demolition derby.DerbyComp_0843 On a muddy/slick dirt track, in front of a packed house, 24 “cars” started and hammered it out until there was only one.  Fun.
