Fair.

Wednesday I slept in. I was so tired from the past few days of not sleeping much. Then I hung out upstairs with my parents for a bit. I started my laundry so I would have the clothes I wanted for the fair done. Well, much to my surprise the dryer crapped out on me. Ahh! So I worked on my room some more. Then I had to start the search for some clean clothes. No worries, I found some.

So, I got my shower and got ready to go to the fair. Dad and I went down to the station and got the truck and headed to Cheboygan. We were part of some open exhibit. All but one or two of the fire departments in Cheboygan County brought trucks and were represented there. Really, all I did was follow Dad around and talk to other firefighters. For a while I felt really out of place. No one knew who I was, but thankfully Dad started introducing me to people. When doing firefighting stuff I am obviously a woman in a man's world and I stick out like a sore thumb. Luckily I haven't caught any shit for it yet. I'm sure I will, and I will be ready for it when it happens. Overall, it was an enjoyable day. I showed a couple kids the trucks, but nothing too exciting there.

After the fair we went back to the station and put the truck away and then went home. I did a bit of painting, then I went out and watched the stars for a bit. But it was cold and I couldn't see much because I had forgotten to put my glasses in so I went back inside. I talked to Justin for a bit and worked on my room a bit more then I went to bed.

Here are the pictures:
