Here are some of the sights and sounds I captured with my iPhone at the Minnesota State Fair.

Butter sclupture

Technically, this is not recycling

Ever wonder how much milk you can drink? The answer to that will cost you $1

Former SNL cast member and US Senator, Al Franken

Bacon.....on a stick

I was in Australia for five months and never saw these

I have no idea what egg coffee is and I don't want to find out


Hey cool — there’s actually some pretty cool video of Al Franken discussing healthcare on YoutTube with the same people as in your picture, Gary. Neat. He does a great job. John — Al Franken’s pretty engaging; might even make a great politician.
I still can’t believe Stuart Smalley is a US Senator. What a joke. This country is sooooo screwed.
nice photos.
egg coffee, first time to hear this one.
I just tried mixing egg on a soft drinks.
I love to try this egg coffee at home.
I will search on net how to do this.
My great, great aunt use to make egg coffee and I remember how much everyone loved it. She lived on a farm near Hawick, MN and we would visit every summer. The place still has no running water! Just the well out back.
My favorite fair food are the gigantic turkey legs. No, it’s not on a stick, but one should keep you full for a whole day. Although I’ve not seen it at a fair, the worst of fried food I’ve seen is the deep fried Twinkie in Vegas. I would like to try the bacon on a stick, though.
I don’t think egg coffee can be properly appreciated unless it’s consumed in a Lutheran church basement.
