July 14, 2012-- Crooksville Pottery Festival and Franklin County Fair
Like the preceding one, this day was jam-packed with fair queen stuff. We started the day at the Crooksville-Roseville Pottery Festival. Ever since the Albany Independent Fair, I had been really friendly with the mom of the Junior Queen, Jordan,'s mom, and we knew that we had to say good-bye to Jordan and her mom, Amy, at their event. We attended the luncheon, but Chelsea left before the parade because she had promised the Franklin County Fair Queen, Kiersten, that she would travel to her dessert social and watch her give up her crown. At the Franklin County Fair, we walked around with Kiersten and the Ohio Fairs Queen Madison and the Champayne County Fair Queen Addi. (I had visited a good deal with Addi's mom at the Ohio Fairs Queen competition back in January.) It was a fun day, and I'm glad that we took in both events, even if it meant a long day of travel!
