What a sales pitch!

We heard Expo Square director Rick Bjorglund bragging on the radio this morning about how visitors to this year's Tulsa State Fair will be pleased to see a "cleaner and greener" fairgrounds, with more open space, more parking, new grass-covered berms (those man-made lines of hillside) and lots of new trees!!!

Well, Mama, bundle up the young 'uns and let's git goin'. Grass, trees and new parking spaces! What more excitement can you imagine than that!

And we were afraid the loss of Bell's would mean a less attractive fair.

Now if we could just add some big boulders smack dab in the middle of the fair, maybe with some moss and lichens on the shady northern bits, our fair-going ecstasy would be complete.
