I love my dog, my sister’s dog, and my girlfriend’s mother (Huzzah!). Other than that, animals don’t really do anything for me. That being said, when I came across the petting zoo at the Central Wyoming Fair and Rodeo, I was like a little kid.

With numerous rides, games, displays, prizes and choices of food, the CWFR continues to prove why it is the destination hot spot for Casper in July. People of all ages came out to the CWFR on opening weekend, as these pictures can attest to. And one thing can be certain- fun was had by all.

So imagine my delight when, one summer when I was 13 years old, I was able to combine the two with my other favorite thing ever- a girl. This is the story of that day.

When I was little, there was nothing cooler than being able to hang out with my friends and family, eat a lot of junk food, and then throw it up after riding the Gravitron 5 times in a row. It was great! Because this was my favorite thing in the world, I spent a lot of time at the CWFR over the years, and made lots of memories there. This is my first.

Parade Day is an excuse to get off of work, get outside, spend some quality time with one's family and let the kids eat as much candy as they can get their hands on.
