The first thing that we tried was the Jacob's Ladder. It is a challenge for those who choose to spend their money for a chance to win. The object is to climb to the top of a rope ladder that is suspended from one rope at the top and one at the bottom. The trick is to balance on top of the ladder while climbing it. You get three chances. Easier said than done. To prove it was possible the guy collecting money demonstrated the technique and scaled it at least 3 times never once falling while we stood there watching person after person tumble into the hay!



When I got up to the trampoline I told the guy that I was talked into doing this by my son. He said, "In that case, I going to make sure that you fly higher than he did!" Boy, did I ever!

We thought this costume was very unique! I tried to get Little Robby in the picture with the tree guy too, but he refused.

Jenna had fun kicking back in her stroller!

When I was a kid we used to go to the Rennaissance Festival near my home, and the one thing I vividly remember was riding the elephants so I made sure we didn't miss the opportunity!
I must say though, that it wasn't quite as enchanting as it was when I was a kid. The elephant walked in one circle and that was it. Oh well.
