To the fair, Batman!

Martin and Kathy took us to the Oregon State Fair today. Cael had a blast. His second attempt at a petting zoo was a bit more successful than his first (the county fair). He was a little more interested in the animals and a little less interested in truck tires. Although, he did enjoy spending time playing with the gate. But who can blame him? Gates are cool.



His dad tried to get him to go on the Zipper, but Cael (wisely) would have none of it. There's always next year.

Martin, on the other hand, was a huge fan of the Zipper and the bungee jump. It ended up being a good thing, because the staff had to ask him to leave the petting zoo (kids kept thinking he was a donkey) and the thrill rides are a great babysitter.

Also a hit with Cael was the fake rain forest. (And, of course, the accompanying gate.)
