Fourth of July




And now for something completely different...middle America! Food on a stick, curly fries, BBQ, and frozen bananas, that's what fairs are to me. Well, maybe not curly fries but definitely the bananas.

We took BART to Pleasanton with our bikes and rode to the Alameda county fair grounds, where we could spend a warm fourth of July, not enshrouded in fog. Where we could see fireworks in color, not haze. We got the fair, but no fireworks. Just Friday night they went off Nd set a hive of yellowjackets on the crowd. We were spared both yellow jackets and fireworks.



We did what we could to enjoy ourselves, eating BBQ, corn, and the choc dipped banana, got our pic taken western style, looked at prize roses and garden design.

After that, we watched impressionable people get hypnotized, then ride our boles back to the station in the warm summer night.
