Hillsborough County Fair: A Thin Slice of Southern
Life at times is just too noisy. I needed a break and headed out to the country for the Hillsborough County Fair for a taste of home town love. Located in East Hillsborough County, there’s lots going on here but it just seems less frenetic.
Where else can you see an antique truck and tractor pull, a youth agriculture exhibit and show, and most importantly, get a Smitty’s original hand dipped buttermilk corndog!
There were gospel singers, a kids fire safety show, and a slower/simpler approach to life- all delivered with a strong southern drawl. Southern comfort indeed, ya'll.
The fair runs through Sunday October 3, and wraps this year up with a Demolition Derby.
