Circus
The circus is in town for a few more days. From when I went to the circus as a child, I can still remember being amazed by the trapeze artists swinging from ropes and balancing up on the high wire. What's your favorite part of the circus?
Things like this are wonderful memories. I remember the elephants walking from their quarters through the streets (to attract attention) to the circus location. It was more than sixty years ago so memory is about all I got left. LOL
Depends on the circus. The good ones, usually Barnum, have terrific acts. Never did like the animal acts because those creatures were trained to do things that I thought were unnatural for them, but I, took, liked the trapeze artists who made me hold my breath!!

Love everything except the animals! Do not believe in caging animals in zoos, circuses or elsewhere.
