Tractors for girls
I don't know this little girl but she was so excited.
I bet Dad will be buying her a toy tractor PINK of course
and boys
You know me and lighthouses and reflections!!!
This is obviously a replica of the real Cape Hatteras Lighthouse on the NC Coast
In 2015 we took a tour to see all the NC Lighthouses click here if you are interested

This lake is located on the back side of the fair grounds
The platform you see to the right is where the nightly fireworks display is held.
So pretty and I love how I (some how captured a pink hue in the clouds)
All the rides are so colorful!!!
Yep those folks are upside down..but I will say they are in a cage.
LOL
Saturday October 26, I teased you with one photo of the ginormous Ferris Wheel at the
NC State Fair. It is 15 stories high, supposedly the highest traveling one
in the United States. Here are several angles.
Several asked why I didn't ride it? I do not like heights especially on rides when they stop you at the top and is swings.
All Ferris Wheels stop and start letting passengers on and off. Can't do that.
The photos against the cloudy sky were rather dramatic
All the seats have a cage around them...
tractors and girls have something super special... I loved the farm rides of my grampy too... but he never bought me a pink one ;O)))
ReplyDeleteExactly! Mom doesn't like swinging 15 stories in the Aire either! Love the pretty pink tractor!
ReplyDeletePink tractor - never seen one of THOSE before! Glad all the rides have cages around the riders - so many accidents these days! Looks like a fun fair.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Teddy and Mom
Wow, what great pictures of the Ferris Wheel ride. Looks like you had a great time there.
ReplyDeleteI love the pink tractor. Wonder if the hubby will let me paint one of ours...
ReplyDeleteHe wants one like the big red one. Cab air. Hahaha, he'll have to keep wanting for a while.
I would have had to sit on the pink tractor also.. she is so cute and excited. I want to drive the little green one, looks like fun to me... love all the photos of the ferris wheel, I don't ride them either. a really cool place to visit
ReplyDeleteOur mom wants to trade in our tractor for a pink one now. Especially since she is the one that uses it to mow the lawn. There sure is lots of interesting things to see at the fair.
ReplyDeleteHari Om
ReplyDeleteI am both fascinated and horrified by those rides...9~) They make great photographic subjects, but you wouldn't find me lining up. The tractors, though... now that's my kinda ride!!! YAM xx
I love the reflection shots too. Always have.
ReplyDeleteI'm not riding on any of those rides and especially the Ferris Wheel. That's way to high and I hate the stopping and starting when you're at or near the top.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. Big hug. ♥
Egads, I don't like heights either...when having to drive across a bridge, I keep my eyes glued to the far end, so I won't look over the side...
ReplyDeleteWe are glad to hear that others don't like the scary rides either.
ReplyDeleteI have to wonder why the pink tractor don't have a cab on it.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on
Even LOOKING at that ferris wheel makes Mom nervous!!!

Who can resist that pink tractor? I like to look at fair rides but have no courage to ride them at my age :)
ReplyDeletegreat photos!
betty
Great picture of the lighthouse... you really did click some awesome pictures! I like your point of view! I love tractors!
ReplyDeleteThose are all great photos and that pink tractor really is something!
ReplyDeleteI can tell you here and now. I will NOT ride the ferris wheel any more. I detested it as a child and still do for the same reasons you have. And *I* am a PILOT! You would think I would be over that after learning to fly, but no. Of corse there was no cage around it. Just a simple bar across the seat. The rocking was too much for me.
ReplyDeleteAnd you sure took some super pictures. Sorry I got off on a rant about silly ferris wheels.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteit look like so much fun. Awesome pictures
That pink tractor is so cool! Even Barbie doesn't have a pink one- OI know because The Great One just got tractor Barbie for her birthday :) XO
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. We love the lighthouse and its reflection.
ReplyDeleteYou know I was "interested" and loved rereading about all the NC lighthouses!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful state fair shots, especially the ferris wheel pictures!
I began getting heart palpitations just looking at those pictures of that ferris wheel. I used to love roller coasters, but that yellow chair is now more my speed.
ReplyDeleteMom could never get on one of those ferris wheels
ReplyDeletehugs
Mabel & Hilda
Superb photos! I love your lighthouse and its refection, and that ferris wheel is gorgeous. I wouldn't ride them either!
ReplyDeleteNo way would you get me on the Ferris wheel! I went weak at the knees just looking at it. That is a cute little pink tractor. I can't really see Ivor driving it though LOL! He is a Case International man.
ReplyDeleteWow! Great sights!
ReplyDeleteI love lighthouses too! I don’t get on any ride that goes up in the air or roller coasters. All fair rides are kind of sketchy when you see the “pit crew”. LOL!
