The Ohio State Fair starts today. I have not been to the fair in years, but after getting information about the fair for an article I wrote for Examiner.com, I realized that the fair might just be a fun place to take the family.
I had always stayed away from most fairs, because I am allergic to ever animal, it seems. But, the Ohio State Fair offers many, many more choices then just the livestock area.
Every fair has great food and this one is no different. I love the Italian Sausage sandwhiches. I can even be talked into a carmel apple or funnel cake. Fair food is the best!
The Ohio State Fair also has a great Midway with lots of kid friendly rides. I am sure our boys would love that.
It is also amazing to me the entertainment that is coming to the fair, Kelly Clarkson, Rascal Flatts, and even Kenny Rogers. Very impressive.
So, if you are like me and have not tried a fair in a while, I would check out the Ohio State Fair. It looks to be awesome.

I have fond memories of going to the state fair yearly with my 4-H club. Sometimes I even had entries and brought back ribbons. I too was not that interested in the livestock, but there are plenty of unique things of interest. I remember being impressed with a full size statue of a cow carved out of butter, a glass enclosed active bee hive, and numerous unique inventions.
Scott, When are we going?
Mim, We have a huge Jesus that looks like it's been carved out of butter one interstate exit from us that we can see any time we want. I bet it never occured to anyone to enter that at the state fair.
I saw on the news last night that the Ohio State Fair also has a cow made out of butter. Of course, it is in no way close to the size of big butter Jesus.
We'll have to plan a trip soon.
