Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night

The North Carolina State Fair



What kind of photo blog about Raleigh would be complete without pictures from The North Carolina State Fair?

It was thoroughly what I expected it to be, and quite larger than the type of fair I have become accustomed to growing up. Just like I’d expected to, I got sick from the awful combination of funnel cake and the various stomach-loosening rides.

The next few days will have at least one post per day of photos from the fair.

2008 Goodnight, Raleigh!
