photos of San Diego County Fair by delphine

I went to the San Diego County Fair yesterday in Del Mar, California, and was inspired by the kooky typography and could not stop taking photos. I also could not stop eating cotton candy. Or funnel cakes. Or candy apples ... ugh.

Does your life feel like one of these twisty corkscrew slides, too?

More posts tomorrow with photos of fair TYPE. I am SUCH a font geek it's a little frightening.

Today I took the morning off and went to the San Diego County Fair with our 4 1/2 year old. This cotton candy pink Tilt-A-Whirl was too scary for us to ride, but I love the way it is decorated.

Yesterday B and I played croquet for the first time ever. Two stubbed toes later we decided the game was best left to professionals.
