dberryhill 3 Posted August 1, 2006 They gave away a new car each night of the fair when I was a kid. This place was packed. The crowds still come, I'm told. Link to comment

bosshogg 4 Posted August 2, 2006 A really good find. I have never seen a grandstand like that made out of wood. I presume it is not still in use. Anyway, framing and tonality is good, and it is a fine piece of nostalgia-inducing photography. Keep 'em coming. Link to comment
dberryhill 3 Posted August 2, 2006 Thanks everyone! Dave, it is still used. The county fair will be held here sometime in the next month. There is harness racing during the day, and there used to be circus acts at night. I think now they have concerts. The boxes are rented for the week. Link to comment

Mike Marcotte 50,147 Posted August 3, 2006 Doug, this is outstanding. There's a nice subtle curve at the top which I think compliments the sharp angles. Great shot. Link to comment
