A night under the Big Top...

Even though I really worry about the care of the animals, I took Jarrett to Ringling Brothers' Big Top for an extravagant night of performers, exotic animals, and entertaining clowns. He had a great time and made some lifelong memories. It's amazing that the price of the tickets was quite less than the price of the trinkets and snacks that they sell at every place that a kid could possible see. J-man talked me into a $20.00 light-up, spinning circus toy and a $10.00 Boom-a-Ring, but he "had to have them!"  Oh well, the circus only comes to town once or twice a year!
