We love the Orange County fair. I work across the street from the fairgrounds, which were originally part of the Santa Ana Air Force Base during World War II. There are still a few buildings from the base on the fairgrounds (and on our campus). My grandfather was stationed there during the war — he was a smart guy, who managed to discharge his patriotic duty without facing too much direct peril — he was a drill sargeant. Keep that in mind, all you potential draftees.
This year there is special excitement: a cattle drive through town (http://www.ocfair.com/2007/ConcertsEntertainment/CattleDrive.asp). Now, Costa Mesa isn’t rural anymore, but there is a large undeveloped park, where the cattle will lodge for several days before strolling through town. Too much crazy fun.
The running of the cows! I have pictures in my mind of the Costa Mesa mayor being chased by a Jersey.
Tomorrow I graduate from crocheted yarn worms to more aggressive projects.

The key is to develop a simple project with a lot of repetition, so you won’t miss a stitch during faculty meeting. “Bringing Peace and Productivity to your next faculty meeting” is my knitting motto.
