ne more county fair
+:' one m
.tl ...... •,

~.,.~-+One ~nore .... '~ounty fair and one
more story.
This weekend it was the Harding
County Fair in Camp Crook.
It still is one of the best lairs in the
country. And unlike the state fairs,
'you can just let the kids roam free.
Bicycles roam the streets and kids
can walk in and out of the bar and
charge a can of pop to their dad or
mother. Nobody drives over 10 mph
and everyone watches out for every-
one's kids.
They show calves that w ry from
200 pounds to 1200 lbs. The sheep
vary in size from 60 pounds to 160.
There were two hogs. One was a
giant boar. The other one was differ-
ent. Rabbits, chickens, and goats.
And every kid had a smile at the pre-
mium sale.
Rumor has it that at the Comer
Bar, on Friday night, there was a big
fat cowboy with a bad back that
rocked the dance floor until one in
themoming. I wouldn't dare say, but
, I know my back was in bad shape on
Saturday morning! Don't tell Shirley.
She retired early.
Each day when the fair winds
down, kids jump on bikes and head
for the bridge over the Little Mis-
souri just out of town• I mean this is
like a Norman Rockwell painting. A
rope hanging from the bridge and
kids squealing and bailing into the
river.
A few years ago we went fishing
there. Fishing is using the term
loosely. We had three rods• A "Bar-
bie Doll" pink, a "Tigger" orange,
and a wore out blue one. Between
the three rods we had one hook.
Since Gage was doing the casting.
~we soon decided that one hook was
too many and removed it. It was
:. more of a rock skipping, moss gath-
ering, peanut butter sandwich kind of
day than actually fishing.
Now you have to remember that
Gage was less than two, and Gracy

was five• Brave little ranch kids. But
after a couple hours I went off into
the willows. While I was there a bear
attacked me! Shirley and the kids
could hear me screanfing and see the
willows thrashing around. Oh. it was
an epic struggle. Finally, the bear got
the best of me and there was com-
plete silence.
The kids kept hollering for their
Grandpa. Meantime, I had escaped
from the bear and began to crawl
around behind them on my belly.
Now. trust me. even on my belly I
still stick up a fair bit. But I did get
around them.
As I peeked out of the tall grass,
Gracy was carrying a five foot long
piece of driftwood. Gage was carry-
ing a big rock. They were edging
closer and closer to the willows
where the bear had devoured their
Grandpa.
Suddenly I let out a roar and
charged from the willows. Gracy
dropped her club, and with eyes
larger than her head, raced for
Grandma. Gage tried to move, but
was stuck between gears and could
only scream. His rock proved a
worthless weapon against a bear at-
tack as he dropped it on his loot.
I was rolling on the ground with
laughter. Till Grandma picked up
that five foot piece of driftwood and
whacked that bear across the back.
Note to self. Grandma is not
scared of bears•
Reminds me of a story Grandpa
Jack used to tell. This guy came
across this old mountain man sitting
outside his cabin• Inside was a heck
of a ruckus going on. He asked what
was happening. The mountain man
said a bear was in the cabin fighting
his wife. And he had never seen a
light that he cared less about the out-
come !
