Fred .. awesome photo's! You are a wealth of information!
Fred - it looks like a great time was had by all ... this is our fair weekend but the weather did not start out all that well for it ... a little damp
Hi Pippa....Thanks, it took me a few days to get this post done, I put it on my web site first. Did you click on the YouTube Link? The dogs were great!
Thanks for visiting.
Hi Kathy...The fair was a Huge Success again this year, our weather was cloudy with Sunny periods so it was not real hot, perfect day.
Have fun at your Fair and take lots of photos!
Fred, What gorgeous shots, it looks like it was a wonderful (and BIG) fair! I'm glad you had a terrific time.
Hi Carol...great politicking on my part. I let Jane's Girl friend Geri ask if she would like to go to the Fair. I still cannot believe she agreed to go with 60,000 people bumping into us all day. Great Family event lots of Kids and stuff for Kids to see and do.
How's New York, My neighbors just came back, they had a great time went to a couple of Broadway shows, a couple of Yankee Games and did some sight seeing.
Cheers, hope you're getting settled after all your renovations.
Fred - Love the photos, looks like a good time. My favorite flower is the blue hydrangea, what color! I'm constantly amazed by nature.
Fred - You take the most beautiful photos. I'm going to have to hire you to take mine. :-) It looks like there was no way not to have a some great fun at the Saanich Fair over the Labour Day Weekend.
Fred it looks like the Annual Saanich Fair was a great time. I can see that the food sure looks good!
Hi Debbie...The Blue Hydrangea was one of our favorites too, I could have taken a 100 plus photos with all the exhibits. It was Fun.
Thanks for Visiting!
Hi Donna...Love to take your photos for you...just pop me a air line ticket in the mail and I'll be there. Thanks for your support and kind words.
Please Come again!
PS: be sure to watch the YouTube video with the Dogs sports.
Hi Bill...the two old dears serving the ice cream and black berries were making a ton, She Scooped the ice cream and he put in a healthy scoop of berries(he picked that morning) and smiled as you handed them $3. I'm sure they took in a enough to start a new retirement fund.
Thanks for visiting!
Fred - we did not get to take a lot of photos while I was there ... inclement weather ... But some of the Photos my Daughter entered in the photo contests won some prizes.
Hi Kathy...Well try and post your Daughter Photos, I'm sure the Gods will accept them as yours since it's family. Did you have Fun...and eat lots?
Cheers, thanks for sharing!
Fred: These are awesome photos and what great fun. I can't believe Labor Day has already come and gone. Love the sign about the wascally wabbits but I think those veggies look so yummy that I would just have to touch them. I know this had to be great fun.
Hi Donna...I see you Likes Bugs too, the veggies were looking good,
My best friend always enters their black berries and usually wins 1st place. This Year they thought their crop was not too great so they did not enter them...then they went to the fair and saw everyone else's Black Berries were small this year(due to our Cold and wet Spring)...soooo we're getting together this Friday to be Wascally and drink my friends Beer, have lunch and pick his award winning Black Berries before some Wabbit gets them.
