Fun at the fair

We were off for the day at 7. We had to get ready to go separate ways because Evelyn went to lunch with the Ladies Leisure while I rode with some friends to the Stock Show to man the information booth. I worked from noon until 4 when we were relieved. Evelyn arrived at around 3 because I insisted she come out to at least show up for her shift. It clouded over and became breezy as though it would rain. Unfortunately if never did. That is typical in the Valley. I have a lot of fun joking with the people who take the programs from me. I joke them into participating in the scavenger hunt. They are to visit various booths around the grounds and have their programs stamped. They can then be entered in as contest to win 2 tickets to any where Southwest Airlines flies. I tell many of them to indicate whether they prefer aisle or window seats, as if they really might win. We already have nearly 1,000 entries. Most of them catch on and laugh. We walked around a bit afterwards looking for the price of the rodeos and bull riding contest. The price is $8, but we have free tickets promised for the bull riding Sunday. Some friends from Fort Wayne are coming to visit and will likely attend the program with us. We came home and prepared for the women’s Bible study to be held here. The leader has a DVD concerning her trip to the Holy Land last year. I had to get the DVD started so they could watch it. I then went to the men’s study on Ecclesiastes. It was the final one of the season but we might meet next Tuesday to watch the DVD ourselves. I came home and the women left. We just had popcorn to eat since we had not eaten dinner. We had opted to wait and go with Don and Janice, but they had called saying they were sick and could not come. I watched some of the NCAA tournament while Evelyn tried on some the order from JC Penny she had ordered last week. Everything fit and was satisfactory.
