Seattle Washington city suburbs. Their is a small horse farm the rich have to board their horses about a mile away. My concern was early morning traffic and getting hit by a car.
When I visited this location again in 1999, not having seen it since attending the fair in 1962, I was amazed at how small and paltry it all was - not much of a World's Fair in comparison to the 1964, '67 and '70 fairs that I also went to.
@crumpet212 Fisher scones, still available at the Western Washington State Fair in Puyallup, and ones like them are sold at Sluy's Bakery in Poulsbo, Wa. I measure all scones against those!
Saw a million silver dollars, got a Heinz pickle pin, rode the Bubbleator, and was able to touch a Mercury capsule. God, the Hofbrau Haus! Haven't thought of that for years
@davidoran123 I was 10yrs old. I remember the future phones that had a screen you could see who you were talking too. The day we were their, was the day that Marilyn Monroe died. My older brother was upset about the news. I was visiting from the Cleveland, OH area and never dreamed later in life that I would move to the Seattle area. Can I ask where you were visiting from? Some of the tech has come true. Geez hard to believe that was 48 yrs ago.
@Pimpmastahanhduece Last summer we had a first yr mother den in our thick hedges. My cats would sit at the entrance and watch the little ones and at times you could hear them nursing. We had one day of 107 degrees and her nipples were so red from the heat and nursing that she came out and laid down in a large pot dish that I kept water in for them to drink from. I put the hose on a fine mist and she went over and looked like she was taking a shower! LOL
@Pimpmastahanhduece Thank you for the commit. They know the rule, no closer then five feet. I DO NOT attempt to make them pets or try to pet them. They are wild animals. This was the only summer that we had this many for a short time after a drought. Their natural food was low and yes it kept them out of the neighborhood garbage cans and eating the local cats. They know my two cats and never have had a problem with them. These are all females with their young.
