Somebody stole your boots.

Seriously, I hope todays traditional circus doesn't go the way of the Wild West Shows and become out of fashion with the general population.

What a downright shame that would be.; 08 November, 2007 07:13

I never saw the show but saw his house - it was built to look like an oriental tea house with the tiered roofs- very unique for the area. cc; 08 November, 2007 08:57

I had known the Colonel on Carson and Barnes so we went by the building to renew acquaintances but unfortunately Col McCoy had gone fishing and we missed him.

He was certainly well-liked on Carson and Barnes and a real hit with the natives.; 08 November, 2007 11:25
