Puyallup Spring Fair


I got to spend a few days in Tacoma, WA!! I want to give a BIG Thank You to Jenny Adams, Ms. Wheelchair America for inviting Krystal Monteros (Ms. Wheelchair WA. 2010) and myself to help out at the Puyallup Spring Fair at the Ms. Wheelchair America table!! I had such a great time with both ladies. Jenny and Krystal are wonderful, selfless people with hearts of gold.
Thank you Krystal for letting me stay with you, we always have a great time together!! 

I have only been to Tacoma 2 times, this being my 2nd time ever, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The first day of the fair was very exciting for me since I’ve never been to  Puyallup, let alone their Spring Fair. As soon as my train arrived in Tacoma (which was an hour late) Krystal met me at the Amtrak station and we took the bus over to the fair grounds. We met a lot of interesting characters, over all the day was great with the sun shinning bright.

The 2nd's and last day at the Puyallup Spring Fair (for me) was a very good and busy one!! Once again met a lot of great people, some of which shared wonderfully inspirational stories about their loved ones with “disabilities” and how they go about their daily lives and overcome obstacles.
I took the bus to the fairgrounds and back myself. Luckily Krystal being the Awesome friend she is, set up my whole bus itinerary for the day, so there weren’t very many mishaps. I did attempt to take the wrong bus at first (not knowing I was on the wrong bus), however being bus savvy myself (my dad drove the city buses in Santa Clara County for 30 yrs,  and I’ve been taken city buses since 2nd grade) this was quickly fixed and I was back on track, no worries.
