I’m ashamed to admit I have never been to Springfield. Mostly because of work. I most likely have Saturday off, but I won’t be in attendance and I just realized why it’s never drawn me in. I want nothing to do with the fair. Haven’t been to our local fair in over a decade, and I’m not driving 3 hours to go to another, even if it has one of my favorite things on center stage. Call me a curmudgeon if you will but that’s how I feel. Thanks to those of you who go and don’t feel like I do
