I know it sounds crazy, but, growing up, I never went to a fair, not one—at least not that I can remember. We just weren’t that kind of family.
So, when my husband and I moved to Maine and I discovered all the fairs every summer, I was insistent. I had to go to one.
But the first fair we went to—the first fair of my life—didn’t go well. This fair shall remain nameless, as I don’t want my bad experience to bias others, but, yeah, it didn’t go well for me.
