Courtland Pear Fair

If you follow me on facebook, you will know that today I checked out the Courtland Pear Fair. This year's fair was the 37th Annual event. It is free to attend, but parking costs $10. We got to see a pear pie eating contest, a pear parade, and we were able to sample some delicious pear recipes including pear pie, pear strudel, cheese-filled pears and more. If you go next year, be sure to get there early - most of the good eats were consumed before lunch time.

Here my husband and I are pictured with this lady who was dressed up as a pear...apparently she is a long time Courtland resident and does this every year.
