101 and Enjoying the Fair

September 21, 2012

101 was the big number at the Fair today, and it had nothing to do with the temperature. Longtime Pomona resident and Fair fan Beth Page came out to ride the Ferris wheel – something she has enjoyed doing for much of her 101 years. Yes, Beth is 101 and Ferris wheels are her favorite. She took a spin on La Grande Wheel, but was a little disappointed to discover that the gondolas are enclosed. She wanted an open bucket! So onward she moved to the open-bucket Ferris wheel, taking another spin and rockin’ the buckets for fun, much to the dismay of her friends. You go, Beth!

  1. This is the sweetest story. I don’t go to the fair because it’s too hot, but next year I’m coming because Beth Page is an inspiration.
