and finalizing the rock theme

In a spur of the moment outing, we took Nikki & Dylan to the New York State Fair to remind ourselves that our species is more complicated than we could ever imagine.

Dylan was in the back seat rocking and, wary of the language of his lyrics, he began singing, "Highway to H." He had the tune down, but he opted, correctly, to end his song with "H." HIGHWAY TO H. Cynde said, it's better than taking a highway to Z, and we had to agree.

Meanwhile, fried dough and Gianelli sausage is consumed en masse.
