Lots of Frumpers!!!

Recommended Posts

I attended the Kansas State Fair today. Mixed in with the cowboys and yuppies were lots of Frumpers! The town where the fair is held has a huge Mennonite population and there were lots of those there too. I enjoyed the fair, took lots of pictures of all the animals and other exhibits. It was fun.

I go to county fairs here in Boregonia, I love them. We've got Mennonites and fundyfrumpers galore at the local fairs. They tend to oooh and ahhh over the canned items, and avoid those defrauding FFA girls in their tight white jeans and blue corduroy jackets.

I hope you defrauded them somehow! Half the fun is at least getting close enough to talk loud about the Pagan festival you are planning or something. :)

Excellent idea. I will keep this in mind the next time I see Frumper wearers wandering around in the real world.

Teddy Bear, are you going to post your pictures somewhere?

Too bad the Maxwells weren't there at the entrance handing out "free" sodas along with tracts and Christopher's balloon art. They were at a large fair in Kansas a few years ago doing just that - but I think they are too good to mix with the common people now. Someone may walk by them wearing immodest clothes (I think they said something about that being a problem for them) :roll:

Are Mennonites the ones with cape dresses? Why are they called cape dresses? Do they have actual crime-fighting capes sewn onto the back of them?

When I get back home this afternoon I'll be downloading my pictures and posting them on Facebook. I'll post a link here to them when I get that done.

My kids work the petting zoo at the fair for 4H and seeing your pics makes me want a cow again. I( really want a pet cow.

We need to come up with some standard questions to ask fundies with booths at fairs.

I just saw your facebook album and then peaked at your info - my Grandma and Mom are from your home town! Small world!

      Planning on scheduling my ankle surgery around Trump's Georgia trial - if I'm forced to be off my feet, I might as well be entertained.

      Stupid loneliness!
      Kid 1 went back to college (yeah! But sad foe me, she stayed with me all summer. It was nice to start a new phase in our mother/daughter relationship)
      Zero prospects on dates. (Not that I have tried online dating, scared of that but I have reached put to a new group at church, etc.
      I asked a friend to go to dinner the other night so I wasn't eating alone, again. The friend had plans, all my friends always have plans. I see stuff on social media, I'm never invited. I'm single, I'm the 3rd or 5th wheel.
      My one parent friend at kid 2's fall sport won't be there because their daughter made varsity (Yeah for her!!! Seriously happy for her. Sad for me for another sport I basically sit alone, did that majority of spring and summer sporting events.)
      And now I'm crying as my mom told me 2 different funny stores that former teachers remembered about my twin. Both stories were about how they got a crack out of my twin's antics (my parents went to a funeral today and saw former colleagues). Teachers remember me (after all I was a twin and teachers' kid) but none would have memorable stories of me. 
      I feel invisible. 
      Don't worry, this will pass,  it always does. I just need a pity party for a few days. I'm not in anyway going to harm myself. As lonely as I am, I have a very full life I (usually) love. I just needed to vent and cry for a moment. 
      If you are still reading this, thanks Fjer. 😊

      Absolutely awful about the fires on Maui. In 2019, I stayed in Lahaina. I liked to sit on the sea wall, which is the only structure left now, and watch the water. People are receiving help, but many had to leave pets. Please donate to the Maui Humane Society, which is leading efforts to find, treat, and reunite pets.

      Nebraska’s new football coach, who is involved in an organization called Man Up Ministries, labels certain players “Alphas” and sometimes “extreme Alphas” and the local paper has a nice piece on why people objecting to the term “alpha male” are wrong and it has a “nice ring”. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
