The Foxes At The Big E

We saw animals and ate food… lots of food… lots of bad-for-you food and walked the grounds.

Big E MidwayWe came. We saw. We ate… and ate!

Today was “Big E” day for the Fox Family. Stef and Helaine dropped Roxie at the vet for her “Tribute to Bob Barker” day then headed home to wake me. By 9:30 AM we were on the road, heading north to West Springfield, MA.

I started the day with a scratchy throat. No change there. We’re back home now–exhausted.

We saw animals and ate food… lots of food… lots of bad-for-you food and walked the grounds. The Big E is New England’s state fair, so it’s pretty large.

I also took around 350 photos. I plan on putting some sort of slide show together, but for now I just wanted to check in and say I’m alive.

Sick On A Day Off–The Saddest Situation

A sick day… and I can’t even take a sick day! Oh the humanity.

This might be the saddest situation possible. I’ve taken tomorrow off and now I’m getting sick. My muscles are a little achy and I’ve had a headache for over 24 hours.

A sick day… and I can’t even take a sick day! Oh the humanity.

We are planning to head to the Big-E tomorrow. That’s the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, MA–as close as New England gets to a state fair.

A few moments ago I explained to Stef, via BlackBerry Messenger, whatever ails me can be cured by fried dough. For the time being I’m sticking to that assessment.
