Do you ever have a carnival come to town and set up on the parking lot of the mall? I don’t remember them from when I was a kid, because I think my parents didn’t drive near them. They didn’t want their four urchins begging to stop and ride the ferris wheel! Heck, we got to go to Six Flags Over Texas once each year and The State Fair. Those ought to be enough fun for any kid.
For Only The Good Friday, I wanted to share some pictures of the carnival that has been in Denton this week.
You can click them to see them a bit larger if you would like. Wanna know the best “good” about this carnival? I didn’t have to ride any of the rides! I could just wander through and snap pictures while I watched children giggle and parents grimace.
The Starship looked out of this world. When it got spinning, I was thrilled that I was outside of it!
I almost wanted to ride the swing, but then saw how fast it whirled and tilted!
The carousel might have been my speed, if I hadn’t seen this monkey. What were they thinking? I’m gonna have nightmares!
Ahhh! The teacups. Those I could have handled.
And, there is something for everyone at the carnival. Everyone’s a winner on this. Pick a duck and the number on the bottom tells you what cheap crap … sorry, I forgot I was only talking about good … I meant what delightful toy you win as a prize.
And, what’s a carnival without funnel cakes? I only experienced them vicariously, but this gentleman was kind enough to let me take a picture.
Oh, sure I have tons more pictures, but I don’t want to wear you out. You tell me something good. Or, tell me about a fun carnival experience you had. Or, just say, “hey.” As always, if you are posting for Only The Good, please sign the Mr. Linky so I know where to find you.
I hope your weekend is filled with fun and frolic!
