Memorial Day Family Fun!

Wow, did we have fun! My friend, Leslie, recommended we visit The Oaks, an old fair ground/carnival-thing that has existed since 1906 I think. It hasn't been changed, and it's AWESOME! They have an old ice skating rink, with an organ lifted high above the rounded wood plank skating surface, where an organ player still plays! The food court was decorated in the 70's, and hasn't been updated in order to keep the history of the place authentic. It's so strange. You see elements of the turn of the century in the skating room, 70's orange and yellow tables, 80's Pepsi Wall clock and can hear Michael Jackson singing his old stuff. We were so blessed, YAY!, because the Multnomah County Fair was going on too! Here are some fun shots from our incredibly fun day...






So, Wendy got this toy pig from my mom, and I had wondered aloud if it was anatomically correct with that "set" shall we say. Well, at the fair, my question was answered...
