Anything better than that post state fair shower?

Howdy from this native Texan. Just wanted to say that the MN state fair is pretty awesome. I’m still missing Big Tex and Fletcher’s corny dogs though.

Ugh, I was so gross when I got home today. That shower to wash all the sweat and sunscreen and Fair stench was amazing. 10/10, will shower again.

No lie, the post-fair shower went on my daily gratitude list today. Not just to wash away the sweat but also to make me forget the hot garbage smell that haunts your time at the fair.

I did a post-Fair shower AND put clean sheets on the bed AND wore freshly laundered jammies for the ultimate renewal. Belly full of cookies. 🍪

The post Renaissance Faire shower. All the same heat, sweat, and sunscreen as the state fair, but with the added benefit of dust and peeling off costume peices.

Yes.

The second shower after a open to close hot dry day at the Ren fest. The first shower just gets the surface grime off.

We jumped in the pool after the grandstand last night. Best swim of the year!

Post ren fest shower. Its like the fair with sweat and crowds, but with gravel instead of pavement.
