I’ve always been fascinated by state fairs. When I was a kid my Mom used to drive my brothers and I from Northern Virginia to the North Carolina State Fair, where she went as a kid. For us, it was like going to the circus. Everywhere we looked was something unique, odd, and fun. As I got older, and started dating my partner, I learned of her love of the Texas State Fair. Eventually we decided to make a trip down to it. I decided to bring along my camera and document the whole experience. And maybe what they say is true, everything in Texas is bigger.
