No Polar Bear Plunge this year!! :(

                

Buck and his crew will not be coming to the fair this year… instead they will be going on a week-end retreat… so there will be none of this….

                 

Too bad too…. the weather is a lot warmer this year than last…

we have gone from daytime temps of 55 to 80s this week… not surprising.. that’s the way the weather is here.

The saying is if you don’t like the weather in South Carolina… just wait a bit… IT WILL CHANGE!!

No… Buck and his crew are not going to the

                      

                              BUT PAPA AND I DID!!!

Oh no we didn’t ride the rides, but we did see the exhibits, and watch others ride… and pet the animals and see the famous SAND SCULPTURE!

Tried everything new to EAT!! and brought home some!!

Elephant ear anyone???

We had a BLAST… but oh were my feet ever tired, so tired they didn’t want any shoes today.(that’s okay, cause you know I’m a country girl)

Just a sample of what we saw…. didn’t get any pictures… so I had to borrow these…

Yep, the SC State Fair has a little of everything… you can ride an elephant, or a camel (be careful the camel spits).  Have your picture made with a sea lion!!!

Great reminder of childhood days… seeing all the exhibits of quilts and other homemade crafts… homemade goodies and the like!!

Seeing the largest Water Mellon … a whopping 166lbs. and the biggest pumpkin… 144lbs.grown around these parts….

And wonderful concerts…

Michael W. Smith and Steve Curtis Chapman were there on Wednesday night… would like to have been there, but I was at choir practice instead… we are working on THE CAROLINA CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION.. keep a look out for pictures!!

This concert and the one by Toby Mack was sponsored by our local Christian Radio Station…. WMHK  http://www.wmhk.com/.

Hope you all have a great week-end… and remember…..

IF YOU DON’T HAVE GOALS IN LIFE…. HOW DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING?????

Received an award this week from Buck’s little church for My Blog Post that I did on their church (Palm Sunday Week-end in Pinopolis).

What a wonderful surprise!!

In Him,
