The first time, I first attended the State Fair of Texas way back in college, but I have been participating as a business at this since 2005.
Unfortunately, I don’t have pictures that far back. I wish I did. My images only go back as far as back as 2007. Notice the sign there with Jerry only mentions Salt Glows. That was before we had added Sugar Scrubs to our line.

I hope you enjoy this little retrospective of the great State Fair of Texas.
