LAST WEEK’S QUESTION
What did you like most about the New Mexico State Fair?
“Amid all the chaos and disruption of everyday life in much of New Mexico, the State Fair offers a welcome break from reality. We can stroll main street the Midway, the villages and regale in the culture, food, music and art that makes our state and the fair unique. Bravo.”
— Dave Coulie, Albuquerque
“During a long week, a chance to unwind with once-a-year food options, loud music, and the parade.”
— Kathrine Gibson, Albuquerque
“Absolutely the fried foods. Doctor might want only fresh greens and rice, but once a year can’t hurt too much now, can it?”
— David Williams, Santa Fe
“Growing up on a farm, now in the city, seeing this year’s livestock is always a highlight. Seeing the hard-working 4-H and FFA members put in this year.”
