Electrical Workers union picnic- lots of pictures

We headed over to the electrical workers union picnic- Pap retired from the union a few years back, but we still get to go. We have not gone since I was in high school. It was a blast with Bug. He was so excited and into doing all the rides.


His favorite ride- the motorcycles. This is the last ride before we left and he was at his limit with people and the heat/humidity. But he had been going strong for 3 hours.
Once we got home, I harvest some potatoes to see what we might have this is the haul from one plant!!!! Tomorrow is potato harvesting day at our house.

Back to the picnic- pap watched us on the rides all day. But even though he did not do the rides, he loved watching Bug. he would wave at us as we rode each ride. The great thing about this picnic is that all the rides, drinks, ice cream, etc was free. The hamburgers and hot dogs were very cheap- but we did not have those since we went right after lunch and left at 3.



Here we are- riding the "teddy bear" roller coaster. Bug loved it!!!! I am so excited, because I love roller coasters too.



The Blue track is ours.




The first ride- Bug is a little anxious- but he was soon having a great time.




We flew the sailing planes.






We flew helicopters









Bug drove cars- looking cool- of course







he rode the motos 6 times





















We rode the Ferris wheel










he drove the boats 3 times










































Have I said how much he loves riding motos?????

First ride of the day- see Pap in the back.
This was great and afterward, we found a great farmers market. They have some great stuff planned in the fall- we will be going and taking Mariposa too.
This was a great day. just a wonderful time.
Love and hugs,
Deb
