Frontier Days

Some of you know that I am NOT a County/State/Whatever you call it Fair person.  Crazy people, yelling at their children, dressed in who-knows-what is more than I can take.  Combine that with the gross germy feeling everything you touch has and the fact that most of the "displays" (at least in Kansas and Oklahoma) are boring.  I mean who cares about the different types of grass competition?
BUT I was pleasantly surprised about Frontier Days in Cheyenne.
Yes there were the occasional person who was dressed in some "interesting attire" but for the most part, many people were dressed in full on cowboy gear which was cool for me.  Beer was served but there weren't any crazy things happening.  No yelling at children was observed and most things were decently clean for being a fair type atmosphere.  
I really enjoyed it!  
My favorite part though was watching Mady on the Carousel.  She was so excited to ride the horses she could hardly contain herself!  Normally Mady is very cautious of new things but not this time!
Before we got on the ride!
Standing in line.
Waiting for the ride to start!

She waved, giggled, and smiled every time she came by!
It was totally worth the $3 we spent!
We also indulged in some fair food.  Jeremy got some fresh kettle corn and Mady LOVED it!  She wouldn't touch Mama's favorite though, Cotton Candy.  
We had a great time and will be heading back on Saturday to do the petting zoo and check out the Indian Village.
