Another year, another Topsfield Fair.

I love the fruit and vegetable dioramas. The sweet potato weasel was my favorite ...

... but

EVIL BUNNY WANTS TO KILL YOU DED.

The oxen were huge. The photo doesn't really convey just how gigantic this ox was, but try to imagine you are looking at something six feet tall and extrapolate from there.

There were also these adorable sleeping yin/yang piglets.

FUZZY CHICKEN FEET. (Sorry about the focus problem, but you'll get the idea.)

Anthropomorphized food urging you to eat it will always crack me up.

I may have shot a photo of this ride last year, too. I still won't get on it.

And finally, my favorite signage of the fair. I didn't buy any popcorn (I had cheese fries instead ... mmm, greasy), but with an endorsement like this, the kettle korn couldn't possibly be bad.
