Luca's First "Great Minnesota Get Together"


We love the MN State Fair. We go for the ridiculous food and drink, the people watching, the music/shows, and for some inexplicable reason, the animal barns. In these barns, one encounters unbelievable tastes, sights, and sounds, along with numerous gigantic Minnesotans prodding and poking numerous gigantic baby animals which are prodding and poking the gigantic teats of their gigantic mothers. Oh, and it smells like deuce. I know, I know, it sounds like I must be falsely billing the greatness of the experience, but trust me, I wouldn't do that.

This year, A got a whole new perspective on things in the human barn known as Lactation Station.Lactation Station is a tent outfitted with fans, light music, and rocking chairs filled with baby Minnesotans feeding from their mothers (both prize-winning and otherwise). Last year, we didn't even notice it. This year we orbited around it.

While our Fair experience was very different from years past in some ways, it was the same in many others...

So Scott just read...assessed...and said "Don't show your tits around here, nope, don't show your tits around here. There's a lactation station for that. Oh but wait, 'Mommy, what's that cow doing?'"
