Kristen - I like "elders" instead of "seniors" - I think?  These fairs are so much fun ... do they have funnel cakes?  (I think I may have one left over from the Lodi Grape Festival last week ....)

I like elders as well, it connotes a certain amount of wisdom. :)

I'm trying to remember if there were funnel cakes last year.  The food is AWESOME and almost all is Maine grown (sorry, had to throw that in there.)  Most of the food is also very healthy at this one.

Sounds like a great time, Kristen. Since we are health nuts, I love the idea of having organic food at a fair.  I hope you have fun if you end up going.
