While walking around this morning, I stumbled upon the Rural Life tent. Inside I found a lot of different displays and events that are catered toward those of us whom are not currently involved in production agriculture, as well as woman. So ladies, if your husband is still insisiting on wondering around, stop by the Rural Life tent for some light craft shopping and a place in the shade.
