Hi ho. Sebastian here with a fascinating tale of what I have been up to lately. As you know, because someone here told you, it has been State Fair time.
And since I have been around, they don’t go without me anymore. In fact, if there is the slightest hint that they might leave me behind, I only have to remind them of the time they left me at home when they went to Disney World and well . . . enough said.
Anywho, the fair is over for another year, but it was a good one for the most part. That’s what I am going to focus on. Speaking of focus, I think I am in focus in most of the photos, but you’ll understand the odd one or two where I’m a little bit fuzzy and not because of my fur. It probably had to do more with fair food overload of the photographer. We won’t say who she is.
I hope these photos will give you a feel for our fair. It is so varied that these are just little itty bitty glimpses of various parts of the fair and they do not even make a big dent in all that goes on there.
I thought we could play one of my favorite games here on bearbits. It’s called “Where is Sebastian now?” First I will show you a close up photo of me that doesn’t have many clues and you try to guess where I am – besides “the fair”! Then I will show you the answer. You guys are pretty smart so I don’t think it will be too hard, but there might be one that will get you to thinking.
We’ll start with an easy one. Can you guess where I am?

If you guess the largest watermelon of the year, you got it right! Not everyone gets to go behind the ropes, just so you know. Only certain people and the occasional furry bear called Sebastian.

Okay, now that you know how this game is played, take a shot at this one. I don’t think you will be able to figure it out, but give it a try.

Did you guess me with Smokey the Bear? No? Well, I will give you another chance.

I think this one is really hard, but take a wild guess. You never know you might be right.

Did you guess correctly?

These birds were huge but not real, so it was not quite as scary.
Okay, the only reason I am including this next photo is because I am in it. I am not sure what the significance of this huge chair is but what does one do when one comes across a giant chair? It begs to be sat in, I think. There are some folks who know this isn’t the first time giant chairs have been here on bearbits. I wish I knew why they keep cropping up but alas, I am still pondering on it.

And that my friends, is some of what we saw.

Now I am one tired teddy. I hope that you enjoyed this tiny tour and will come back again when I have another tale to tell.
love and hugs,
