Do you remember what it was like when the cool summer breeze
would whip your hair around as the sun beat on your forehead? And the smell of cotton candy filled the air along
with the musical melodies from the carnival rides? Well, you should remember it, because those things happen every
summer at the Ohio county fairs. Here are two pieces of info that'll get you started planning this summer's rides on
the ferris wheel:List of county fair dates -- from the Beacon Journal, it's an alphabetical list by county with fair dates.
Ohio county fair interactive map -- click on any colored county to pop up the Web page for that county's fair, with complete info in most cases.
By the way, the big one -- the Ohio State Fair -- is in Columbus from August 2-13. REO Speedwagon, Jimmy Dorsey, Kenny Rogers, livestock auction ... it's a broad, juicy slice of Americana.
1. Thanks to Brad for directing people to the Ohio County Fair Map I created for www.ohiohampsheep.com
Appreciate your help letting folks know about it.
