Come to the fair some day / someday!
A: I love living in Texas and going to the fair. Come to the fair some day / someday!
1) Come to the fair some day!
2) Come to the fair someday!
I have learned that some day and someday are interchangeable in some cases and I feel like in the A's sentence, both some day and someday can be used for the same meaning or only the #1 is correct? If so, could you tell me why only the #1 is correct or both are correct for the same meaning?
What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual.
