New Jersey State Fair - Sussex County Farm & Horse Show


With the high price of gas these days, it's good to find something interesting to do within an hour's drive from Bergen County. I've never been to a state fair in Jersey. When I saw the advertisement for Sussex County's Farm & Horse Show, I thought it might be fun to check it out.


Gave the carnival area a quick pass and headed straight towards the animals. After all, I'm here to see some farm "friends".


Don't you love the alpaca's funky hairdo. There were camel rides, elephant rides, petting zoo, etc.


More animals in the petting zoo. Don't forget to wash your hands!


Racing pigs and some swimming ones too! An interesting race and the pigs have amusing names like Hillary Rod-HAM Clinton, Britney SPARE-RIBS, etc.


Farm animals do shower. The camel actually "multi-tasked" in this photo. He was pee-ing while waiting for folks to feed him.


I love these photos. Don't you love the KKK looking sheep and his lycra fitted friends?


Prime steak or pork chop, anyone? Yum! Of course, they don't smell appetizing here.


Kountry K-9 Show from Florida - the white Poodle's b**** were so visible when Adrian captured this shot. LOL!

The racing pigs and the KKK sheeps looked amusing. It must be fun to be there. I've never been to a state fair before - should try going to one some day.

binky: i think the state fairs in mid-west are much better than over in the east coast. but, it was fun to see the farm animals and other critters. great for families with young kids :)
