At Alonies Ace Hardware and Garden Stores brings you a garage logic podcast number 685 live from the Minnesota State Fair, the last day of August.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, 31, 21, 94 degrees on this day and two occasions, 1898 in 1907 and in 1974 a summer I remember is being very chilly.

It was 40 degrees.

And now from the mayor's office above the boat house on the east shore of Spoon Lake.

It's garage logic with working on production, Chris Reaver's director of social media, John Hyden, the newsroom, and occasionally Kenny from the crabby coffee shop.

Here is your flashlight king, fireworks commissioner and keeper of common sense, your mayor, Joe Suschina.

But first, but first Kenny, Bunga Bunga.

Special thanks to running Aces, Casino Hotel and RaceTack for sponsoring us here at the State Fair.

Yesterday we had Mark Eldridge right off the bat. He races pigeons. Right here live at the Minnesota State Fair, he released a flock.

Is that what a group of pigeons are called?

Sure.

And he wants us to know all the birds that release yesterday were home after I got home from the fair.

You know what was neat to about that?

The way he described the circular formation that they do.

They did exactly that around that tree.

They took off right by sweet Martha's cookie stand. They're listening for a crack in the crust of the earth.

Which is so cool.

I'm not sure if I'm buying that.
