2003 State Fair of Texas - Page #1

It's Hsu Whey's first time at the fair, and a picture with Big Tex was obligatory	It was on to the food court where - surprise! - we met up with the Wallners	Next stop was at the Coliseum for the 3:00 pm show. This year it's "Spirit of the Dance"	The Texas Star was looking good on the way to the Garden Center	The butterfly gardens were profuse with exotic butterflies from all over the world.
Hsu Whey, Angie, and Connie stopped to have a picture in the butterfly gardens	Out on the garden walk, Hsu Whey was intrigued by these "yardbirds"	Connie snapped this picture of me with the girls in front of the garden fountain	Chevy had this 1934 suburban on display. Guess those Chevys really last!	The parade was combined with opening ceremonies this year. Luckily Kay Bailey didn't speak too long!
Later, Jim showed me his dream car	Connie also found hers. Together they look like Christmas ornaments!	Even Angie and Hsu Whey had one picked out.	We made a second visit to the "Spirit of the Dance" show, and afterwards the girls got a picture with some of the dancers.	Now Jim and Connie have developed a unique strategy for resting up from walking all over the fair grounds!
"... and I could Waltz across Texas with you"	Angie and Hsu Whey couldn't resist having their pictures snapped near the "Backyard Circus" tent.	"I know it's got to be in here somewhere!" Long story. Ask me sometime!	Wednesday night we took in Mama Mia at the State Fair Music Hall.	The following Wednesday found us all back at the fair ..... eating turkey legs again!
