We went to the Nevada State Fair this past weekend and took Naomi with us. She was the only one with a wristband for the rides, so she only rode rides once we met up with Dolli. They had some really neat acts this year. I think our favorite was the motorcyles in the ball. But, the dog jumping contest came in at a close second. One of the owners got a little confused I think... She threw the toy for the dog and then jumped in herself while the dog just sat on the platform! too funny! While waiting for the Demolition Derby to start we ran downtown to get some pictures of the "Big Tomato Fight" 50,000 pounds of Tomatoes were dropped in the middle of downtown Reno. You had to pay like $10 to get involved. All proceeds went to a Cancer Charity. I stood way far away and still ended up getting tomato juice on me! Maybe we will have to join in the fight next year! I know Roland would love to. So... after that we raced back to the fair just in time to see all the demolition derby stuff. Liz and Sammy met us later that night and Naomi was able to ride a few rides with them before it was time to take her home. All in all it was a fun, but tiring day!
