Last issue’ s photo was of the Foxfire Sign on East Main Street in Nashville. Sharon Wright guessed it.
The geography of our Brown County makes it difficult to socialize. We don’ t have neighborhoods like most communities. Homes are spread out— some even miles apart. Visitors fill the streets of Nashville, our county seat, and locals don’ t often congregate there in large numbers except for Sunday services. That, however, changes once a year when the county fair arrives.
Folks of all ages come to see the exhibits, attend events, ride the rides, and, most importantly, to meet up with friends and family. Even teenagers like to make their rounds along the midway.
This is an election year and the fair is the perfect place for political candidates to reach potential voters. I am running for office this year and you can be sure I will be putting my time in at the Democrat party’ s booths. It is a great opportunity to meet and greet.
My favorite part of fair week, of course, is the food. You have to eat a least one of everything. Forget about diets.
See you at the fair the first week of August.
