Iowa State Fair
|
Summer is just about over! Well, this city mouse visited his country cousins at the Iowa State Fair in August and had everything you can ever imagine to eat on a stick - including meatballs and spaghetti! We don't have a pig judging in NYC, but in the fall all of the city's neighborhoods hold block parties and street festivals featuring the the ubiquitous Funnel Cake! Autumn is a great time to visit; theatre and concert season starts and we New Yorkers are in full swing. It's as if by magic the day after Labor Day signaled a sprint to Christmas. "So Y'All Come Back Now, Hear?"
