After lunch we headed for the huge fair buildings filled with booth's.  The Magic Raven loves to watch the demonstrations by some of the best salesmen in the country.  the cookware folks are undoubtedly the best of the best.  Besides, you can sit down and watch them put on a great show. 

 
   

I have no idea what this steamy concoction was all about, but it was a fun demonstration and the buyer seems enchanted.

   
   

  While Mrs. Magic Raven gets a back massage, Mr. Magic Raven samples a new chair.  Notice the hiking boots?  An  attempt to alleviate the sore foot problem.  They didn't work.  Besides, Mrs.  Magic Raven appears to be enjoying the massage a little too much.  Time to move on.
   

 
   
   

 This young lady as the right idea.  Play the clarinet. It's Much lighter and easier to carry.  Still she looks pretty serious.                       Need I say more about the temperature?
 
 

 

  

   

It is only fitting that the last shot at the fair be another rear ender.  from sheep hind quarters to Clydesdale hind quarters,  you can now see why I named this excursion, "Los Angeles County Fair...The Back side."

Back outside we decided to wait for the Clydesdales to Parade past us.  they were preceded by several marching bands.  Remember, it's over one hundred degrees out there and the marchers are in full uniform carrying heavy instruments.  Oh, to be young again.
