Wednesday Walk at our County Fair

in Ladies of Hive2 years ago

Return to normal

It started with the traditional Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting Ceremony last Christmas. That was followed with the traditional Honey Festival in Spring. And then came the traditional Main Street Fair also in Spring. And now the County Fair. 🥰 We are seeing a return to the usual public activities in our town. At long last!!!


County Fair

By definition, a county fair is one that is usually held annually at a set location in a county, like our county fair grounds, especially to exhibit local agricultural products and livestock.

This year our County Fair is missing the livestock portion, but we are more than happy that it is back after missing in the years 2020 and 2021 due to Covid-restrictions.


Competitions

There were all sorts of competitions and fun to watch.

Quilting


Crochet


Sewing


Baking


Preserves


Table Settings


Decor


Produce



There were large and small farming equipment on display also. Do you know how large this was? I tires of this monster truck were taller than me.



There were two buildings full of merchandise and booths of local organizations.



Of course they were in the grounds too.



Rides

A county fair without rides does not feel like a fair. And it was a carnival of all sorts.



And FOOD!


The tacos were made by the volunteers of our Church. It is a fund raising to build our new Church.



I hope you are enjoying your day! Until the next one!

Join us for #wednesdaywalk of @tattoodjay. It is so much fun. It is in collaboration with @elizacheng's #makemesmile challenge.

What an amazing show of talents. Such events will showcase all those whose hands made all these. I wish to see such events in my country. This will reduce the rate at which youths engage in less productive things It will also bring to light hidden abilities of Nigerians whach will help people see that most imported things can be produced locally. Weldone to folks in your country.

Do you have such activities? It would be a good way to involve the kids! There was a band competition, and lots of kids were involved. Our county, being agricultural, is into local products. All products used in preserves and baking wee local products.
Have a lovely evening!

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

Yes! It was amazing. It's bad I run out of batteries, I could take more photos. It was fun too!

Oh wow! That looks like a great time! I would love to see the quilts. Interesting that they have decor and table settings! I have never seen that before, but it's been so long since I went to a fair! I also like the quilted jacket! Thanks for sharing photos - I enjoyed seeing all of the photos.

I have pictures on every Quilt entry! Perhaps I will share them, hehehe!
I sure there are a couple more classes which I failed to mention. Pre-covid, they would have all sorts of competitions on livestock. Maybe next year.
Thanks for coming! I post everyday: every other day about silver and gold, and general interest the rest of the days. Have a lovely evening!

Super cool! I have cousins who used to raise steer to show at fairs. I used to love to go to quilt shows. I love quilting, but I currently don't have time for it!

Wow, quilting! My friends and I are in awe of the time and effort one outs on quilting. There was a time I learned to quilt... like small pieces. I still have them!

I have made a quilt for all of my kids, grandparents, nieces, and nephews. Currently I don't have time to do any of it thanks to homeschooling, homesteading, and having 6 kids, plus daily stuff that goes along with that! Ha! I love it though. I do it all on a machine. Hand quilting is torture and I've only tried it once on a small piece. It was too much work!!

You're welcome @silversaver888, it's well deserved! Congrats on your constant involvement on Hive 😊👍 Have a nice day.

Hello friend. It's nice to visit you. I am still solving my problem, it is still difficult and I still trust in God that it will be solved, but I took a break to post something to calm my anguish a little, and to read some dear friends.

It is really gratifying that things are getting back to normal after all we have been through, how nice to enjoy everything we used to do, although I still do not go out much because here you have to be cautious, even a little more tranquility is breathed.

How nice everything you show and you are enjoying.

Let's pray to God that everything continues to improve.

Hugs and a thousand blessings @silversaver888 💕🌹

It's nice of you to visit, despite your challenges!
Is there is anyway that I can help?

Amiga but how beautiful you are, God bless you, you are an angel. Thank you for your support and offering. It is difficult what we are going through but don't worry it is nothing of life, death or illness. Just that emotional support is enough for me and that you keep my home in prayer for this to go away from my house.

A big hug @silversaver888 ❤️🌹

This looks really nice. There is nothing which is really like this (at least with the combination of all the different activities).
If there would be something like this here i would visit it with the family for sure :)

I love county fairs @silversaver888 , looks like you had a wonderful time😀 very nice to hear that volunteers from your church we're cooking tacos to raise money for your new church! When are you hoping to break ground?
That tractor in the photo with the huge tires, is the size tractor our oldest son owns, he likes being a farmer in addition to an oil refinery worker..😍

We are holding Masses in the gym of the Parochial School. You see, they sold the old church. Hopefully soon, they will break ground!
Wow, that a huge monster truck! A you have to do is look at the fence behind it. That fence is twice my size!
I love our fairs too, @silvertop ! 😍
!PIMP

It sounds like your parish and the parishioners are very committed to building the new Church.....looks like you have a great Church family @silversaver888 !!😀

Yes, except that it will be a year before they start building the church. We just have to be patient @silvertop !
!BEER

The time will go fast @silversaver888 , when I was a kid our church did the same. The archdiocese required 75% in cash before we could break ground. The bell towers did not have bells for several years so they could be paid for in cash!😇


You must be killin' it out here!
@silversaver888 just slapped you with 1.000 PIMP, @silvertop.
You earned 1.000 PIMP for the strong hand.
They're getting a workout and slapped 1/1 possible people today.

Now that is one mighty fun looking Yolo County Fair! 🚜🎡Too bad California is too far away for me to drive or I'd have been there in a heartbeat!💓🏃‍♀️💨💓

Were the handmade quilts for sale / raffle or only being judged as I didn't see any 🥇🥈🥉 ribbons on them. I zoomed in on my smartphone and decided the top left quilt with the variety of cute birds is my favorite!🦚

Never ever have I seen table settings being judged in a fair. How fun! 🍽🍷💐🍽

Did you visit that crystal vendor booth? I know I would! 🔮🌙 ☪️

Talk about food! Calamari, fish and chips, smoked turkey legs, kebobs, tacos and so much more yummy food all in one place? I feel like I gained weight just looking at the selections! 🌮🍗⚖😋🤰

Happy Tuesday to you! @silversaver888
Congrats on an awesome Wednesday Walk entry! 👣👣

!LADY

Yes, it was loads of fun!!!
The Yolo County Fair is the largest and oldest free gate fair in California. It sits in a 55-acre area! You can just imagine how big it is.
Perhaps I can show the rest of the quilts in a separate article. There were so many of them. I would have a challenge if I were a judge in such a competition.
Yeah, table setting was my first too, hahaha!
Happy Tuesday to you too, @ninahaskin ! @tattoodjay said it was okay it posted on Tuesday, since tomorrow is my silver & gold day!
!LADY 😍🌺🤙

Jay is cool about the posting window - close enough it being to Wednesday👌You did make me verify what day it was though!😊

A 55-acre county fair is huugggeeee!🎪🚜🎡
It must take weeks to set up and days to take down. How much fun it must be to try and see as much as possible when you're there.👀

Hopefully next year The Yolo County Fair will have livestock once again.🐓🐄🐮🐂🐖

I need to add seeing this county fair to my bucketlist along with hitting a couple California vineyards. Last time I visited your gorgeous state one of my kids was underage so we went to Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks instead of wineries.🍇🍷🍃🍷🍇

Thank you for the LOH token, Sis!❤

Yes! I am hoping for the county🐂 fair 🐖 will have 🐮 livestock 🐄 again🐓! It was a huge part of the fair.
But every one enjoyed it just the same. For the exhibitors, I bet the set up and breakdown was part of the fun!!!
So much to see, places to visit, @ninahaskin ... I wonder how long you bucket list is? Mine keeps getting longer since Hive, hehehe!

It looks like it was a lovey fair! Ours just finished an unprecedented 9 day run; they usually do only 5. We did not go as they raised the entrance fee well beyond what we think is fair and from what I heard, I'm kind of glad we didn't go. They raised the food prices as the vendors are required to turn 1/3 of their proceeds over to the fair admin and the over all feel of the fair, as told to us, was very much smaller with less entertainment than in previous years. They used to have free seating for all concerts and you could watch the horse events for free. Now, you have to pay additional monies to get into those. Just for the 2 of us to go, you're looking at well over $200 if we were to go to just one concert or event! They were trying to make up for lost time due to Covid, and I get that, but with the cost of everything, I wasn't willing to pay it.

Your fair looks like it had plenty to look at and do. Were there any concerts or music entertainment? I'm glad you had a good time! Thanks for sharing sis; much love to you!😘🤗🌸💕 !LADY

I miss attending some kind of fair. I hope that they will open again since it's been 3 years since I last attended. 🤧🥴

Tacos caught my eyes!! So drooling!! 😹

Hehehe, the food is good! So many to choose from, so little a stomach, jk only!
But things are easing up where you are from?
Don't worry, you'll have them back!
Have a lovely evening.

I'm from the Philippines and I could say that the restrictions here are getting controlled but there are still some parts of pre-pandemic that I really miss... including attending some fairs and carnivals.

Have a good night sleep! I just had my lunch here. 🤗🤗

Yup, they are fun and brings people together!
I hope you have a great day tomorrow!

Oh yes, it is one of the objectives... county fairs foster communities to unity and development, and to gather and showcase talents and skills.
It would be great to participate in the baking competition... and the table setting one! Maybe next year, hehehe!
