Famous writers and their typewriters.
(Photo from Smith Journal volume one. Typewriters from the collection of Robert Messenger.)
I want a typewriter SO BAD!! Joe and I got to play with two at Field Day of the Past last Sunday, which was fascinating… it was so strange for me to see “traditional American festivals/carnivals/field days” in real life, and not in a movie. I wonder if it’s how other people feel about visiting China.
(Although China in the movies is not always comparable to China in real life since the country is so big, and the media tends to capture very select aspects of it.)
Tasted funnel cake for the first time. That was interesting. And had a corndog from a stand. By the time we got down to the roasted corn though I was too full to eat it. It was rather tragic. >_<
It was also my first time seeing roller coasters (of a sort) and other rides NOT at an amusement park! Along with the assortment of target booths - no typical “shoot the rifle at the target” though. The closest it got was launching a bow and arrow (well, launching the arrow with the bow, naturally) at a target.
Also got to see some lassoing - there was a high school rodeo? competition happening too. Also saw some piglets racing.
All in all, it was a fascinating experience. =)
