Couldn't make it to D*C, so went to the Ohio Renaissance Fair. Hot, dusty, not in costume, had a blast.
The Mud Show is an absolute must. Just be certain to check the bench for mud before you sit down, don't sit in the first ~5 rows, and NEVER wear white.

And for added excitement today's Big Suck includes a catastrophic failure of the hydraulic braking system of a fully loaded (cargo, not options) pickup truck while it was going down a hill.
Down shifting and parking brake (just like they taught back in drivers-ed several decades ago) kept things from gettin' outa hand, but the pucker factor was a touch elevated there for a bit.
Waiting to hear from the shop about how much coin (that I ain't got) will be needed to set the re-entry sequence to rights.
But the garage is a bit cleaner now.

oooh mega suckage Flattop

HUGS Filly and Sister. I have surfaced and am very tired, but survived. It was LOADS of people and too much walking for me ( never do D*C when you are 8 months pregnant...) but it was still fun
We even semi inducted a teeny tiny Jayne into the 76th ( check the picture thread)
More to follow
