Killingly, Connecticut: Syracuse, NY State Fair Trip!

Killingly, Connecticut: Syracuse, NY State Fair Trip!

Hello!

I thought I would share my Holiday Weekend Plans!

We are driving up to Syracuse, New York to take in the State Fair! It will be a first for me so I'm pretty excited! We bought tickets to see Kid Rock & Uncle Cracker perform at the Mohegan Sun Grandstand! We are staying overnight so we won't have to fight the traffic driving back after what I hope turns out to be an awesome day. I'll post my pictures of the fair on Monday for all to see and give you my take on the experiance! In the mean time if anyone is interested I have included The Quick 2009 State Fair Info and links to the site so you can check it out for your self!

I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
