Last Day 40 degrees to 95 degrees overnight!


OK, it rained for three hours yesterday and left a swamp around our stage. Our fingers and toes were frozen when we left in the fog last night. Today it was 80 degrees by 8am and getting hotter. Nothing more than an occasional wisping cloud floated by all day. It was hot...and the wet ground meant it was humid too. Whew!
It drained us. I think the drastic shift and the heat and humidity was just too much. We were all zapped by the end of our last show.

My hats off to the young hypnotist that we shared the stage with, Chris Jones, from Chicago. He rocked the crowds. Hire him if you can.
In the morning a husband-wife group called "Kids are People too" did their yearly contests and games. Amelia and Midori joined in the hula hoop contest and Amelia won.....OK she's a pro and a wringer. But still....Midori came in second.

They say that today was the best weather WI has had all year. So it was an honor to be part of it. It was a bit tough, I would think, to be an audience member sitting on the hot benches in the sun. But sat they did and clapped they did and a great show we had. In fact, two great shows today. Midori performed a couple of costume quick changes and the Zig Zag.

The Wisconsin Deep Fried cheese curd man gave us a big bag of really great string cheese....sorry Cali they beat

Next stop is Ohio to get CC and get Belle groomed and the vehicles washed.
Next show is Swartz Creek Home Town Days in MI.
