I am the great Cornholio!

I'm home and quite pink, having spent the last four hours at the fifth annual WT White street fair. Some of my kids and I have been running a beanbag toss game called Cornhole. It was kind of slower this year, but The Hoofbeat managed to squeeze a few bucks out of the afternoon.

I failed to put on sunscreen- it's been overcast for so many days that I forgot sun would have such an effect on me. I remember now.  Boy, do I remember...
It was fun, though, and I think I've made a few connections with potential advertisers. 

Bonus- Cas came out toward the end of the event and hung out with me for a while. He even went over to a food truck and bought me lunch. Pretty great guy, really. 

There was a booth there for the campaign of Edwin Flores, our former school board rep who is running for his old seat. I walked over and said hello. I tried to sell an ad. His campaign guy wants to make sure it's legal to run one, so we shall see. 

He also managed to help the junior class fundraiser by taking a pie to the face. The kids got 50 bucks added to their fund for that one. And I got a pretty great picture for the newspaper's Twitter feed. 
Now that it's wrapped up, I need to wash myself and apply some lotion to my poor arms. I guess I'll be sporting the farmer tan look for a while...

This is what the sunburn looks like 24 hours later:
