The Perth Fair always runs on the Labour Day weekend. We visited on Friday, the first day of the three-day fair. It opened at noon, and timed it that way. The crowds built up as we ambled around.
You can see that the lights were on, because it was cloudy.
This little hat was so cute. There is a mechanism in the long ears of the little boy's hat. Daddy was showing how his new nat worked. If you squeeze it at the bottom of the yellow ears, the horns pop up and down.
Typical 4-H events, showing their calves.
The carver:
Jayden was an 18-year-old from our township, who died
Dec. 7th in a car incident near Perth.
Lots of happy kids, parents and grandparents filming the action!
I had my heart set on a Blooming Onion. It was a mistake.
On the way home, a gathering of birds, in a flock, ready for migration.
The trees are changing colours.
Saturday morning it dumped rain. I am glad we popped into the fair Friday.

So glad to see you both are feeling well enough to be out going to the Fair! Yep, those blooming onions are always just enticing enough and never satisfying. Get your greasy taste satisfied elsewhere!
This looks like a fun annual event. Sorry about the blooming onion, though! You were spot on with your timing!
The memorial adds a sombre note to people's fun. And it does look like a fun day. Your visit was well timed.
Glad you made it to the fair, Jenn
Sign me up! Especially for the Ferris Wheel ❤️

Local fairs are the best.
The fair looks fun! I like the blooming onion! Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
My dad would use the term bloomin to indicate a negative. So I guess you had a bloomin blooming onion.
Usually those blooming onions are so good...sorry yours was not. Fun to see the photos of the fair, you are really getting out and about!!
