These are the pics I took of the 2005 Minnesota State Fair when the EDGE band went on their second annual State Fair trip!

After a little bit, the guys split up from the girls and we went to go look at cars. I dunno why I like Scion so much, but there are some other cars in there too:

Now here are some random pics of the tech building. They have this thing that takes your pic and fingerprint and scans your passport if you want to go into the US and then records when you go out. No more spoofing because they test you on your way out.

When we went past the military stuff outside of the 4-H building, Dave decided to enter the pushup test. He had to get 45 pushups to win a shirt and lanyard.

Then we went and watched a BMX show at 3rd Lair. I got some pretty awesome shots of the tricks (the last ones were the best!):

So we all had a really awesome day at the fair. I had 2 deep-fried candy bars, 1 powerade, 1 pronto pup, a few cheese curds, a snow cone, and a vanilla shake. We all had a great time and I cant wait to go back on Labor Day to see the Switchfoot concert!
