Polack Bros. Circus 1965/ Barbara and "Opal"

After a life time of taking care of animals, in retirement things havn't changed that much. It's still dark in the morning when I run the dogs, then down the driveway about 50 years to fetch the Tampa Tribune followed by all the neighborhood feral cats whom I then feed. After the morning Blog it's time to march the boys down to catch the school bus and today for the first time my daughter in law will drop off little "Lumpy" as she returns to work at Busch Gardens. It's about a mile to the area where we shop so when I make my morning rounds I'll have her buttoned down in the back seat of the van. I'm not sure how that basket fits into a shopping cart but I'll learn. Couldn't be any worse than putting a howdah on an elephant.
