On Friday evening, the ski's ventured up North to the Essex Junction Vermont Fair to take in a Brad Paisley Bonfires and Amplifiers Concert. Brad was accompanied by Taylor Swift and Kelly Pickler and all three were quite good. Paisley just became my favorite country music performer. (Sorry Toby). It was an outstanding concert despite being surrounded by 18 year old wannabe country girls wearing cowboy hats and boots. When Brad busted out with some renditions of Johnny Cash, the crowd went silent except for the ski's screaming in excitement. Oh well, as my wife says, us Yankee's just don't get it! Anyways, Taylor is going to sell lots of records once she turns 18 and Pickler we realized isn't the sharpest tool in the toolbox as she was easily distracted by the ferris wheel off to her right. (She looks a heck of a lot better than in her first video though!)The fair itself was a blast as anytime one gets a chance to walk through a Carnie, you see all sorts of walks of life! But the evening was made by seeing john deere tractors, cows, chickens and a woman smoking a menthol screaming at us to get our palms read. Good times, good times...
Vermont is certainly the place to be!
