Spencer County Fair

My mother recently moved to Spencer County and we decided to check out their fair this year.  With my nieces and nephew in tow, my boyfriend, my mother, my mother's friend Kathy, my sister, and I all ventured to the Spencer County Fairgrounds.  There were mullets galore and ridiculous t-shirts that say things like "SHUT UP AND FISH".  There weren't very many rides, but the few they had were run by tattooed carnies that talked faster than the Micro Machines man.  It rained off and on throughout the evening and every now and then they would stop a ride because of the lightning, but the show went on.  I'm obsessed with fairs and carnivals. They are beautifully American and there's just something very majestic and intriguing about them....especially the small county ones. 

These young men were missing parts of their clothes.

I have no words.

I bet I know which poster he wants to win.

You can win your very own rebel flag that says "Redneck" on it.

I would like to know the story about the wig in his back pocket. 

Swings.

My nieces.  Leila(left) and Jenna(right).  This was Leila's very first ride ever.

Creepiest kid's ride ever. 

Terrifying and awesome.

Derby City Comic Con

This weekend I had an art booth at the very first Derby City Comic Con here in Louisville.  I had a lot of fun, and was entertained with all the costumes and people watching.  Here are a few pictures I snapped with my phone. 

An artsy picture of a couple of my prints.....

Wonder Woman.

FINISH HIM!!!!!!.

Tank Girl

I'm actually not sure what this little boy is, but he's cute.

Not a costume.

I called this man Uncle Batman.  His friend was carrying a weedeater for his costume.  Bless them.

Tickled Pink

Today I visited a little antique store called Tickled Pink.  It's full name is Tickled Pink Memorabilia Mall.  It indeed has memorabilia.  The entire house is full of bizarre trinkets and dolls and glassware and all sorts of delightful and odd things.  The man that owns it is extremely helpful and kind, and the prices are very reasonable.  He will even let you browse the garage for more stuff.  He will hand over the garage opener (taped together) and tell you to just push the button.

My boyfriend snuck and bought this cute little owl clock for me when I wasn't looking.

I bought these guys.  The total for both of them was less than $4.

Accidents happen.
