What would a fair be without a Ferris wheel? The amusement park section of the New Jersey State Fair/Sussex County Farm and Horse Show was as busy as usual with both adults and their children sampling the rides.

AUGUSTA — The 10-day New Jersey State Fair/Sussex County Farm and Horse Show closed on Sunday but weather-wise it was a pretty good year for fairgoers with only one evening thunderstorm.
This year marked the 75th anniversary of the fair.
Even as it grows from year to year, the spirit of country living remains as a draw for both young and older visitors.
