She drug me out of bed at the crack of dawn to drive two hours to spend hundreds of dollars on stuff she has to bring home and wash and for some reason, I am ok with that.
As we do every first weekend in May, we spent the day at the MDSW.
She can't move very fast anymore but you should see her sprint all the way across the fairgrounds to beat everyone else to the best fleece. She had me looking for a Merino this year and that was easy seeing I'm a Miami Dolphins fan.
I found her two. This is why she brings me along. We have to carry them all the way back to the car and it is uphill.
While loading them, I got to admire the wax job I did on the car.
We made the rounds of vendors and then it was time for food.
My favorite part is all the petting you get to do on animals that you don't have to feed or pay the vet bills for.
By one o'clock, I am wishing I had worn some other shoes.
The sheep dog exhibition takes my mind off my misery.
I love these dogs...
...and for some reason they seem to love me.
I came home with a new hat.
I was tempted by the tee shirts but I would only spill coffee on it.
After a trip through the animal barns, I was hungry again.
I had a lamb burger. Yeah, I know but they smell so good.
The last stop is always to pick up a new addition to the shade garden.
I am running out of room so I picked something small this year.
Now for that long walk back to the car. We are not moving so fast anymore. Neither is anyone else. It's been a long day.
The good news is I'll be watching golf tomorrow while She makes another trip up to buy more stuff she doesn't need.The bad news is that we have to wait another year to do this all again.
