Red Bluff---Day 2

Sleeping beauty-----during the show.
Princess admire a tank of fish...the first time we saw a mini-aquarium with all kids of local fish at a fair.
In the floral building the Princess pose in front of a really long cactus.
Cowboy Ken....claims he lost 13 lbs since May (SIlver Dollar Fair....check it out on the May blogs)
The nice smoothie vendors...if you are at a fair and see this stand...get your drinks here.
Peyton's Mom owns the Science exhibit.....the Princess' endulge in the sciences.

Amazing Light Schedule today....two stage shows and some strolling.


Both audiences were full houses and the shows went swimmingly! It's nice to have Jugglin' back with us....he missed a few gigs due to the first year of college stuff. His character and showmanship are brilliant.


There is a strolling juggler at the fair as well. He is 35 but looks like he's 17 or so. He is very talented but like some he chooses to wear tie-dyed shirts, different color vans shoes, sequins vest and or hats, and baggy pants. Being cotton the outfit is somewhat faded and comes across artisian-hippy-ish. (He is from Berkley.) I mention again he is very talented but not a showman...he has substituted the loud ridiculous for the clever and polished. But I mention again he is VERY talented....he can do a lot of great stuff with his juggling and unicycle, etc....but he comes across as a big brother fooling around with the kids. But he is skillful.


There is also a close-up magician doing a close-up strolling show with mostly cards... He's Matt the Maverick. He is excellent. his sleight of had is great and he has great presence. He wears cowboy gambler wear.


Olivia fell to sleep laying prostrate on the stage near the sound during the first show...it charmed the audience.
