My wife visited the Minnesota State Fair with a friend she’d met traveling. Talk “aboot” a place that’s fun! She sent me shots of the winning butter sculpture and pictures made with dried beans of different colors. Other than street shots of tens of thousands of attendees looking like before pictures in Ozempic commercials, and, unlike the demographics down here in the South, barely a “sister” or “brother” in sight, it could make you almost forget they are politically crazy nut jobs.

Now I WANT a Willy Wonka suit!
