I can’t get that song out of my head!

Don’t you just hate it when you can’t get a song out of your head? (Or is it just me?)  Anyway, ever since I set the date for our upcoming day trip to the great State Fair of Texas on October 15th, I’ve had the words and music in my head.  You know the one. It’s the song from the movie, “State Fair”. (Warning….the following song may become lodged in your brain…)    “Our state fair is a GREAT state fair…don’t MISS it, don’t EVEN be late…It’s dollars to donuts that our state fair…is the best state FAIR in the state.”  Okay now you have it in your head, too.    You’re welcome.

What’s funny about the song is that it wasn’t referring to our state fair….the original 1945 movie was about the Iowa State Fair, though the later version starring Pat Boone was filmed at our own fair.  Anyway, it’s all about romance and fun.   And for me, it’s about the food.  I’m looking for the fried butter at this year’s food booths.

Romance and fun included in our upcoming day trip to Dallas on Thursday, October 15.  It’s $30 for the day, if you’re 60 or over…$10 more if you’re under 60.  It’s a great deal to one of our state’s most popular annual events.  Join me, won’t you?  I promise not to sing on the bus.

Having a great time. Wish you were here.
