​"Quintessential Texas fair," Janie sighed to herself.  Sweat already fogged the polarized lenses of her large, square-framed sunglasses.  She looked down at her grandson, Jack, age three.  He was hopping in excitement at her side, anticipating the unknown joys of his first carnival.  What we do for our grandkids!
