Suzy and Joel and Owen and Evie

We go to the Yorktown Grange Fair every year as the final fair of our four-fair summer finale—one each weekend for four weeks: Hamburg, Brooklyn, Woodstock, Yorktown. We finally got organized this year and Owen made something to enter in the Yorktown Grange Fair’s Lego competition. Some fairs like Woodstock say absolutely NO LEGOS. But some fairs encourage Legos and appreciate the wide range of creative work that kids can do with the blocks. Owen made a heliport and helicopter for the Scene competition and won Best Scene for his age group which actually starts at age 6.

Meanwhile Joel decided to try the watermelon eating contest. One guy has won it for seven or eight years straight and lots of people tried to oust him, but he managed yet another win. Joel had fun and got a nice participant’s ribbon.
