Summer Fun at the Carnival...

It's summertime and that means summer fun at the carnival. The Strates Show Carnival is a traveling show that started in 1923. It is said to be America's only carnival that travel by railroad.   The Carnival  makes a stop every year near my hometown. It brings all the colors and thrills of the boardwalk right to our backyard (practically)!! It had been years since I've visited the fair... it really does make you feel like a kid again!!! What a great day and look at that beautiful sky--a photographer's dream! Check out my photos and see if you spot your favorite Thrill Ride.
