The Alaska State Fair


We can boast of a perfect attendance here at the state fair.  36 out of 36 shows.  Not bad!  Playing at the state fair has been an amazing experience for our family.  We have seen wonders, met fabulous people and generally whooped it up.  
We shared our stage with hudreds of students of the arts, amazing musicians and talented dancers - all Alaskan, born and raised.   
The fair itself was overloaded with a plethora of fun activites, shows and amazing sights.  Charlie Danieles, Sean Kingston, and other big name bands rocked the night away.  We saw 60-lb cabages, dared the incredible bungee of terror and even test drove some cars (Andy's favorite part).  
We played 3 45-minute shows a day and explored the fair by night.  
In short...We are definitely going to need a vacation from our vacation.

OH, You got to go on the bungee sling shot! (really though, so who chickened out? :-) I was going to go, but NO my best friend had to bail out, so I had nobody to go with! Anyway, I loved seeing you at the fair, still love listening to your cd's all the time!
