Mendocino County Fair and Apple Show

We went to the Mendocino County Fair and Apple Show in Boonville.  It was a hot day.  The parade was bigger than expected.  We love the apple tasting.  And we love Fair food - garlic fries, Indian bread, apple pie.....

The fair had some nice photo's, quilts, and flower arrangements.  We got to watch a sheep get sheared.  We were scared the "he" Sheep would become a "she" sheep as the wool was removed around the male parts.  The entire sheep was sheared in less than five minutes.

What still amazes us is how many people you run into and know in a small community - its really nice.  Lots of coast people went over for the day.  On the way back we stopped and bought the apple we liked most at Gowan's Apple Farm
