^ Depends - I like visiting my SoCal pirate friends at the Ojai faire, but for sheer fun I like the Kearny faire (any faire where pirates are invited to make noise of the bang and boom variety is my kind of faire!)

< Exhausted today! The Jamba Juice matcha green tea blast with energy boost is helping, though.

V If you could change anything about your local faire, what would it be? (excepting the quarrels between authentics vs. hollywood fairegoers.)

^My local fair is in the middle of the desert; in a State where we have more man-made lakes than any other state. Why can't we have the fair at one of the man-made lakes....like Ojai does?
