Day 3 of the Fair - August 2, 2007

Today was a busy day at the fair! It all started with the 4-H show, where I learned a lot about livestock. Miss Albemarle, Ryan Tillery, and the other Albemarle princesses were visiting and we had the traditional Fair Queens vs. County Queens tug-of-war competition. We almost had them, but lost it in the end! It was exhausting, but a lot of fun. Miss Virginia Association of Fairs, Sara Wirtala, was also visiting, and it was great to meet her.

Another highlight was competiting in the pie eating competition. I was competing against a bunch of guys from the Marines! I didn't win, but I sure tried. Rick from 3WV didn't show up for our challenge--I think he was too scared I would beat him!
