Clamor of the Midway

Clamor of the midway delights our ears Calliopes from the old merry-go-round, Shouts of the barkers, games one hears Clamor of the midway delights our ears, Squeals of children, roller coaster fears Combine to make up that special sound, Calliopes from the old merry-go-round Clamor of the midway delights our ears.

Thanks so much, Robert. For the first time in years, I went to the State Fair this week. It was a very enjoyable adventure.

It doesn't matter if you walked, ran or were pushed. What DOES matter is that you were there and you enjoyed the day.

Yep. I really enjoyed my day at the fair. Of course I had to be pushed around all day in a wheelchair, but I did enjoy it.
