We spent the day at the Brentwood Cornfest yesterday. We had been before a few years ago and it had been fun - kind of a small town county fair type vibe. I guess progress is good, but not in this case. What had been the funky, fun ag based festival was nothing more than a ton of vendors selling crappy stuff, a couple booths selling roasted corn ears and a shitpot of carnival rides. It was a disappointment. Not to mention it was hotter then hell as well. We must have consumed at least 6 bottles of water in just a few hours.

We had gone with our friends Hannah and Chris and their kids so at least all of the kids had a good time playing and riding rides while we wilted in the shade. Hannah's nose got burned and my face got a little toasty and all of our kids looked like they had been dipped in dirt by the time we left. They were also pretty much covered in cotton candy as well, they looked like street urchins lol. We went back to their place and watched a movie and cooled off in the AC while the kids played. The guys went to pick up some dinner and we all ate and then said our goodbyes and had to head home. We didn't get back till close to midnight, and I am so beat. We are supposed to go to another festival today but I am just not feeling it. Kinda 'festival-ed' out I guess. Plus I dont fancy another afternoon being charred. I wore a ton of sunblock and I still got fried!!! WTF?

Puurrs to all,
