Norah and I found each other right here on Gather, which I think is really cool! We started talking because we have the same tattoo artist and have a lot of things in common so it was only a matter of time before we became good friends. We talk all the time online and by phone and have seen each other a few times in person since we've met but we never had the chance for just the two of us to hang out.
We both wanted to go to the Oregon Country Fair this year so we decided to go together. The day was awesome, despite a few things that happened ... but all in all we had fun.
I didn't take my Canon with me but borrowed my 8 year old's new camera because it was much smaller and easier for me to put in my purse. I had intentions of taking lots of photos at the Fair but for some reason I didn't.
So here are the photos I DID take and if you'd like to see more photos of the Country Fair, you can also check out my Gather post here.

Thanks for checking these photos out!

I'm glad you had a fun time! I'm shocked that you didn't take a ton of photos - you always take a ton of photos!
How fun. Sorry, I'm brain-fried, otherwise I'd say something more. :)
Looks like you guys had a good time.
It looks like you and Norah had a great time!
I think when you are having so much fun you kind of forget about the camera.
It reminds me of the Fairie Festival that comes here in May. Looks like you had a fun and exhausting day!
How great that the two of you got to spend the day together.
great photos of the both of you, Momma hardly seems to be having a nice time though. Thanks for sharing with us.
sounds & looks like a fun day!!! :)
Isnt meeting gather people so fun? I am sure within the next two weeks Tracy and Elaine K or Donald will meet. One day perhaps she will come to visit me. Arlene's Mom lives right down the road from Krissy and I . Maybe one day.
It looks like you guys had fun.
Our state fair starts next weekend. Elliott and I are planning on going like 4 or 5 days I think. I think I might be nuts. ;) My husband is going with us three days, and we are going with friends at least once.
I love that your mom still has a booth there!
I would love to go back one year.
10! Here's a whole load of photos taken by a co-worker of mine at the fair (warning, some adult content): http://www.katu.com/news/photos/50666147.html. See anyone you know?
That person's comment kinda made me laugh just because it was SO far out there. Someone gave him a nice response though... something I would have said.
By the way... I didn't recognize anyone in those photos but I certainly recognized all the costumes and booths!
