Friday Night Photos County Fair Edition pt5

Happy Friday everyone. Welcome to Friday Night Photos your once a week escape from the day to day insanity of the world we live in. Post any photos, memes, music or whatever else you find of interest that helps tune out the madness.

Life is like a roll of toilet paper. The closer you get to the end, the faster it goes. Turned another year older today. Seems like the birthdays are coming around faster every year. On the plus side of the ledger, they're still coming around. On the minus side of the ledger , I'm feeling every one of those years more and more every day.
Did my civic duty and donated blood today. I have a rare form of O+ that the blood bank really likes. Per FDA regulation you can only donate whole blood once every 8 weeks. The blood bank likes my blood so much they call and text me every 8 weeks on the dot to let me know I'm eligible to donate. I'm 2 pints shy of 21 gal. total lifetime donations.

No trip to the fair is complete without going to the fun zone.

So many people out there have it a lot worse than I do so I do my best not to complain and make the best of what I've got.

The body is getting a little cranky but another trip around the sun is a good thing.

There’s something quite sacred about giving blood on your birthday. It’s like giving life to someone else who needs it.

And now you can splurge on a birthday celebration! Enjoy!

and the Bobby McFarrin. My splurge was pizza, something I love but only have a few times a year.

Amusement parks were a part of my early life, from Coney island to Playland. The best part were the beaches they were on ; ).

A couple abstracts ...

Cheers everyone

As amusement parks go you can do a lot worse than Coney Island. I grew up a short drive from the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk. Not as famous as Coney Island but it's one of the few that's still left in Ca.
Love the abstracts.
