Another day at the fair here again. It’s laundry day at the hotel for us so while Victor (Victor the dad not Victor Jr) did the laundry everyone else swam in the pool, except Cynthia. After awhile Victor and Cynthia traded spots and she did laundry as he swam. Time went fast so lunch was at Hardee’s a.k.a. Carl’s Jr. Dad would end up with a sunburn while everyone else just tanned.We then went to the fair to get ready to perform. The shows went very well today. The only thing that went wrong was when Victor, Amelia, and Olivia fell off of Miles on the bed of nails. The only person who got hurt was Amelia on her hip. But it was superficial and she was happy as a Lark in a Park in no time. I think the shaved Ice one of our sponsors bought for her was the perfect thing to cheer her up. (Victor Jr and Olivia got some too.) Blue lips for the last show thanks to the shaved ice. The kids were very happy to get it!

Note to everyone: Swimming before a show on a hot day is crazy...it zaps the strength.

Dinner was cooked on our Microwave in the back stage tent (we carry the nuker as well as a Foreman grill and hotplate).

The shows were awesome with the liveliest audiences yet.

James, who strolls the show in his stilts, went for a walk about the fair without the stilts and discovered the fair sure looks different from a lower perspective. He also noticed that no one noticed him out of the stilts. He said it was a surreal experience.

Before the shows while the others set up the show Victor (dad) and Amelia went butterfly We were blessed with a good haul and caught two butterflies only found out in these parts. Yesterday Victor and Victor went out on the hunt.

Some very kind Kentuckians gave us a bottle of Kentucky made wine, a mason jar of Moonshine, an antique bourbon bottle and a Kentucky Derby official Coke bottle.

By the way there are "dry" towns in Kentucky....you can't buy or own booz. London is one of those towns. I suppose it is more "moist" than dry; you can have alcohol at restaurants.
