Seen through the lens: Fall Festival in Pahrump, 2006
 MARK SMITH / PVT This little fellow could barely make it to the countertop, but there is no mistaking his order for three Italian sausage subs during Fall Festival.  The Randy Anderson band played Friday afternoon. Above, Tommy Wayne looked almost pensive as he took the lead, while below, Kim McCasland celebrated being a "redneck woman."   Adaven Scronce seemed at ease, above, as she won the grand prize for breeding doe during the 4-H competitions. Below, she was more animated moments later as her winning entry tried to gobble down her ribbon and she had to move fast to recover it.    Basin Avenue looked a little like the final scene from "Field of Dreams" as vehicles continued to come to the festival as Saturday afternoon turned to Saturday evening.  Food was everywhere all weekend.  Festival faces ...    The mechanical bull was kept busy by all ages and all skill levels.  Carnival-goers took careful aim as they tried to pop balloons during the evening.  A little girl is dwarfed by the cartoon characters at the bottom of a carnival slide.  It took some skill to play the Newspaper Game and keep any part of the feet from touching the pavement.  Synergy's Saturday evening set attracted a colorful group of fans.  Above, young Kaylee Byrd and Rodney Hayes, the Texas Kid, caught the eye of rodeo fans with their miniature horse and full-blown Brahma bull as they rode through fire. Below, Kaylee's mount then posted proudly atop the bull.  FALL FESTIVAL PHOTOGRAPHY BY HORACE LANGFORD JR., MARK WAITE AND MARK SMITH |
