Topsfield Fair

By adamg - 7/29/20 - 5:28 pm

The Essex Agricultural Society announced today it's canceled the Topsfield Fair, originally scheduled for this October.

Since its start in 1818, the fair has been canceled in 1918, due to the Spanish Flu, and between 1943 and 1945, due to World War II.

Logrolling

We went up to Topsfield yesterday for the last day of the fair. Saw the giant pumpkin (was so hard not to yell "It's gourdgeous!" while standing in front of it), saw our annual fill of farm animals and award-winning collections of root vegetables and took in the lumberjack competition, in which guys dressed mainly in flannel plaid shirts competed in such manly pursuits as axe throwing, log sawing and, of course, logrolling.
