Ferris Wheels, Snow Cones & Funnel Cakes in July

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with North Sky Realty LLC 6502410580

On the 4th of July weekend I went to the Battle Creek Field of Flight & Balloon Festival held at the W.K. Kellogg Airfield.  Part of the event was a fair, complete with a ferris wheel and some other rides.  I took the photo below when walking around right at dusk when I first got there, and I thought it was kind of a typical scene one might see anywhere in the country in July. 

Just looking at it myself, it brings me back to all the times I went to the fair with my parents in the summer time.  

Funnel Cake anyone?  How about a Sno Cone?

These things can be a lot of fun.  However, I am not much for funnel cakes.  I don't like pancakes, either. So, there you are. But ferris wheel is fun.  Hope you had a great time.

Michael...

Our fair here is in September, when the evenings cool a little bit' Last night it was 80 degrees here at 3 A.M.

Michael, I didn't know what a funnel cake was until tonight when I googled it.

Judi, you are so right about the fair.  If someone has not been to one in years, I always suggest they go.  It somehow brings you back to your childhood in many ways.
