The middle of September is upon us. Wow! My brain keeps thinking it is still the first of September, but feel like it's August. We had a busy weekend starting with worship at The Temple on Friday evening to kick-off the Unity Habitat build--20 congregations from various denominations building a house over the next four weeks. Saturday we spent most of the day at the church putting finishing touches on the youth room so it would be ready for class and youth group on Sunday. Sunday was church and recuperating! ;-)Clark and I did sneak in a little "us" time to go to the TN State Fair. Clark spent most of his time at the leather guild's booth, while I wandered. This is my first visit to the state fair since moving to Nashville. We went to the Wilson County Fair a couple of times with the kids, but they were never interested in the exhibits. I saw the cakes, cookies, sewing, drawings, paintings, photos, legos, and various other creative arts. I also walked through the livestock barns, which brought back a plethora of memories, some good, some not-so-good. In a previous lifetime, the first two weeks of March were dedicated to the California Mid-Winter Fair, one year as an FFA student and fourteen years at the significant other of an FFA advisor. One thing that is the same at every fair...California Mid-Winter, Wilson County, TN State...the food! I had myself a corn dog and Nutty Buddy. Yummers!
¡Hasta pronto, mis amigos!
