The Orange County Fair

2015 marks the 125th anniversary of the Orange County Fair. Growing up in San Diego, Del Mar's annual fair was a huge part of my childhood. The Orange County Fair seemed like it was cut from the same cloth -- carnival rides, disgustingly delicious food, games of chance, nostalgic musical acts nightly (Huey Lewis & the News, anyone?), juried craft + agriculture contests, the list goes on...

I was so excited that we were able to visit the fair on this special anniversary, it was better than I imagined it would be + brought me right back to the summer fairs of my youth.

I'm already looking forward to next year.
