Yesterday we had wonderful field trip shows in the morning with about 300 children who were loud and had a great time with us at the show. Last night a tropical storm moved in close and the temperatures went down to around 55 with highs today just at 65. The worst of the storm is moving in now and there were several tents and pieces of equipment damaged last night and this morning due to the high winds. Thankfully our show is set inside a wonderful arena so we are pretty much protected. We were surprised to open today at all but with a show scheduled for 5:30 we only had a few. So, we got to change things up a little and bring all the children in the ring for juggling lessons, up close circus magic and just goofing around. It's fun when we can change up a little. If we don't wake up in Oz I'll write more tomorrow.
