Florida State Fair

They sure did name this event correctly.  Our experience was just FAIR.

On the first day we were scheduled to perform, their were HUGE crowds that STAYED HOME.
  Here is our stage.

Here is the path behind us that is supposed to be elbow-to-elbow with people.

And, here is a view all the way around.



After each show we came ashore to chat with the audience.  One day we paused for a photo opportunity.

 

I  had been watching the Olympics on TV and noticed how the skiers always held their skies up for the pictures after each run.  Since P&H sponsor us, I thought we should do the same.

If you look carefully you will see a large man behind Donna's kayak.  It was quite windy and he was there to save anyone who might be in the landing zone should a gust of wind knock the kayak away from Donna.  Little did he know, that Donna is stronger than me.  He should have been behind my kayak.

 

Skiers don't have to work this hard for their photo.  Notice the flags blowing out straight.  The wind was over 15 knots.

 

Just like our experience at the fair, you might see this post as just fair also.
