Video: Trip to Springfield

 Hello!

I made a video of our trip to Springfield. It's clearly one of my first attempts, but it was kind of fun.

Some disclaimers:

1.) There is a scratch on my camera's screen. Poor thing. So that's what the large, gash-like looking line is from. In case you thought the sky was falling apart.

2.) Music starts kind of suddenly a little bit into it, so be prepared.

3.) The music is "Friday Night" by The Darkness.

4.) I've been singing a lot lately. You'll get a glimpse of that magic.

I bet you really want some fair food now. And let me just say, if you've got a hankering for anything...anything AT ALL...on a stick, they've got it.

Pizza on a stick?

Yes.

S'mores on a stick.

Done.

Want some deep-fried Kool-Aid on a stick?

It exists.

Alligator on a stick?

Sketchy, but yes, they have it.

We also got to watch a cowboy stick his head in a barrel of rattlesnakes and saw at least a thousand giant, blinged-out belt buckles.

It was everything I had ever hoped the State Fair would be and more. 

The Illinois Capitol Building.

The Dana-Thomas House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the early 1900's. 

Botanical Gardens.

I found a new effect! We celebrated 15 months yesterday, so a kissing photo was necessary.

Thank you, Tommy, for the lovely day:)
