8.30.09 - NV state fair - a perfectly fun summer



this morning my my dear friend sharon and i went to the nevada state fair. she's crazy for chickens and i'm crazy for ferris wheels photographed with the holga. i was so happy to take my new holga with polaroid back and try it out on a ferris wheel! it uses peel-apart 100 film. my dear friend randy smith, who owns holgamods.com, made this camera for me. it was a sunny, hot, perfect nevada day and so much fun to watch so many people enjoying themselves. i took lots of photos of the fair today and also yesterday at lattin farms in fallon, where i go every weekend to buy the most delicious tomatoes, watermelon, corn, honey dew melons, cantaloupe, and onions.

it's been a great summer filled with travel, family, beloved friends - my heart spilling over with gratitude for my new appreciation for life after cancer.
