What memories for the children this trip has been. They made Friends (in fact, the sound man's little daughter, famed for her shyness, took to Olivia and Amelia from the first day. Victor Jr., like James, makes friends very easily and he befriended a number of boys his age all weekend long.) Our boss, Trisha Edwards, gave the kids some VIP ride tickets so they got to go on a whole bunch of rides in between shows. On top of that, the soundman's wife also got some tickets and took their daughter and my daughters on even more rides.
Then there was the food! The vendors and staff out here have been so kind and generous to us. James was given a daily dose of chocolate dipped cheese cake on a stick and various other treats throughout the event. The deep fried cheese and veggie folks (Mr and Mrs Shmidt and their helper, Mr Schrink kept us in deep fried happiness as well as fresh cheese and some of the fattest hot dog corn dogs I have ever eaten. ) There was also a lot of chocolate. (duh)
The shows today went very well. Jim did his wheelbarrow-lay down in both shows and nailed it both times...the audience wnet nuts!
We added diabolo (Chinese Yo-yos) to our sales and Jim gave kids who bought them private lessons. They were very popular. We may have given birth to a new trend for the youths of this town.
The folks out here have been extremely kind. The audiences were awesome...not one bad audience. Cynthia's singing and the Foy routine went over very well. Both have become full time regulars in the show's rotations.
Tomorrow we wake early and drop the big three at the airport. then the three small ones and I start our drive back to Cali. Cynthia graduates in a few days then we are back on the road.
I will be posting a very nice video blog when we get bak into town.
Cheers and God Bless.
