I scored a free frisbee from the American Steel Carports booth at the State Fair of Texas outside of the Women's Museum on Saturday, September 26, 2015. It was a nice, strong frisbee. Our dog loved playing with it. It really was a sturdy, strong frisbee and not a flimsy thin one. Love the orange […]
As long as I can remember, I have enjoyed seeing the various dancers perform at the State Fair of Texas on the Hall of State Steps in the Texas Cultural Partnership.

I had a great time visiting the Truck Zone and the Ford exhibit. There is a children's play area in the Truck Zone. I won a free Ford hat and a keychain for playing the interactive games at the Ford Exhibit. One of the games required a group of people to move foam bricks around […]
I noticed free sunscreen all around the State Fair of Texas. This one was located near the front gates. There is lots of shade at the fair, especially along the Midway areas. But many areas and walkways are not shaded. I think it is great that the fair is providing sunscreen for free!
