The parking to trolley to tickets to fair is an interesting series of exercises. I'm not sure why they designed it that way but I was there Teusday so the crowd wasn't very large. You park out in a big rolling field. Catch the tractor/pickup pulled trolley trailer. You get dropped of at a turn around from where you walk down through a tunnel under the highway to the ticket booth area. You buy your walk around tickets and go through security, which was basically a bag check then walk down through another tunnel under the highway to get to the actual fairgrounds.
The Midway and Exibition Hallis on the left and the animals/livestock/farm equipment/etc. is behind the manor house on the right. Restroom facilities where convienently located, new and clean.
All the attraction routes are paved and I was suprised at how dry everything was. Very little mud anywhere. The site layout is really nice and we had a really great time. Feet and legs get a little sore from lots of walking so if you go make sure you've got on your most comfortable walking shoes.
This was the best arial I could get from the ferris wheel....located at the north end of the midway.
