    "Our state fair is a great state fair; don't miss it, don't even be late!" There is even a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical about the Iowa State Fair.

    I'm so glad you all enjoyed the Iowa State Fair. My husband and I go every year....several times every year. You highlighted a couple of things I'm going to buy this year that I've never had. That's one fun thing about it: there's always something you haven't heard of and haven't eaten. I had a son born August 6th, and a daughter born the next year on August 2nd, and both were at the Iowa State Fair as newbies! Thanks for all the good comments about our state fair! Hope you come back!

    Hey guys!!! I live about 10 miles away from the Washington State fair so I’m a big fan of the food, exhibits but not so much the rides anymore. So I feel for ya Matt. We call our ride bracelets “dizzy passes” and I retired from the dizziness years ago. I think with age comes wisdom lol, and a weaker stomach for spinning rides. The food there looks amazing and I’m a sucker for chocolate chip cookies and bacon wrapped chicken wings. And on a complete side note, there a live feed on RUclips of downtown Leavenworth from the roof of the Kris Kringle store that you must check out if you want a sneak peek of winter in our little Bavarian oasis. Take care you guys and keep those videos coming!! God bless!!

    • @AdventuresofMattandNat
      @AdventuresofMattandNat  2 года назад +2

      We've heard that the Washington State Fair is great too! Yea... I think y'alls name for the ride bracelets is accurate! I just can't handle it anymore! Lol... I think I'm gonna have to officially join you in retirement! Lol... But the food? Now THAT I can handle! Lol... I wish I had a bucket of those chocolate chip cookies right now!!!😋 We checked out the Leavenworth Live Feed... It looked AMAZING! Such a winter wonderland!😍 As always, thanks for watching! -Matt

And as far as retiring from rides consider yourself a member of the “no spin zone” club👍 I’m glad you checked out and enjoyed the live feed of Leavenworth. You guys would absolutely LOVE it during the winter season.
