With all this thinking and writing about the Fair I remembered that I had some misc photos from about 1963 of me modeling some of my 4-H creations at the fair fashion show. I was also in the parade that day but the photo is so blurry that it is, well, sad, so it doesn't get gigantor treatment.I don't know how my mom could even stand me... if I was looking at the camera I always was making a goofy face, yeah,that's if I'm looking at the camera. See the little girl with the cast on her leg and looking the WRONG WAY??? That's me, of course! (bwahahahahaha)

I'm glad you're back. I miss the one way I have to feel connected to you each day. The way you feel about the Plumas County Fair and the memories are the same as I have of the Calgary Stampede except we had the chuck wagon races to. Nothing beats the excitement of a chuck wagon race. Well, that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
Yes, yes, the 4-H Dress Review, participation prompted indirectly by Mary Griener because she required "Blue Ribbon work" when we sewed. I always felt so gawky up there n
next to the Yocky girls. But know what?? -- A few years ago they had a RS fashion show and I knew how to model and turn -- felt pretty good too, even though it was a gag for some crazy program.
Joanie, thanks for the memories.
And Mom "stood" you because you were a nice, nutty, spunky little kid and besides, "Everyone loved little Joanie"!!!
Oh, and by the way, Auntie P -- I am so glad you have been a good friend to Joanie over the years when her sisters haven't been living very close by. Hope you are doing well, dearie . . .
Love ya, Ann
