Ring of Fire

Belle the Wonder Dog jumped through a ring of fire for her very first time. This is a year of firsts for the young beauty. She was also recently certified and registered as a service dog to help with Titus and me. She is quite the different dog than we knew when she first came to us over a year ago.

Don't worry Belle fans, the hoop is designed to have the fire above her and we won't do it on windy days. I don't think singed dogs smell too good and we love her too much to put her through that.

We are three days away from our departure. We have the house sitters all lined up and the comfort of knowing Miles will be here until school lets out in June. He was also invited to a think tank call Boys State in June and will attend that then catch up with us in Kentucky.

Midori, the young lady who danced, assisted, and did the Lyra at the Japan Fundraiser will also join us at the end of this Month in Wisconsin. She will stay with us through the end of the tour. Cynthia is happy to have because Midori likes doing the impaled illusion while Cynthia doesn't.

Cynthia will also join up with us once we know her full schedule. She has a couple more track meets and is .31 seconds away from qualifying to go to national finals. So we are playing her schedule by ear.

Last year was our first year Rving out to shows. We will do the same this year but now we are better prepared for what lies ahead for us in respect to Rving and camping. One absolute plus is Mami's cooking. It will probably be rice and beans for a while since the promoter inn SoCal (David Jackson and his wife Lisa Forsyth Jackson of the Los Angeles Spring Fair and West Coast Festivals and Faith Festivals and the Orange County Spring Fair) ripped us off by not paying us our fee. It means we are heading out on tour in debt. It won't be a comfortable start financially, but that should help make for an interesting adventure and beside we know Who is in charge. Still we ask you all for your prayers as we head out on Sunday.
