It's a trip back home for Andy today as he grew up showing and exhibiting at the Great Jones County Fair:
Such a cool sign to welcome everyone to Monticello, where the livestock was being well cared for:
Beef show is scheduled for Friday as they are nice and comfortable:
The swine show is Thursday, with the fans and shade creating good air flow to help deal with the heat:
Since pigs don't sweat, misters allow them to keep cool through the evaporation process and of course there's plenty of water available:
It's kiddie dairy show day for bucket bottle calves and that is always a hit for fair goers:
Of course the big name entertainers playing the fair this year include Chris Stapleton and Tim McGraw, and over 100,000 are expected to make their way to Monticello before things wrap up on Sunday.
