I was the trainmaster, plus other duties at that time and Hired Tony and Casey as part of the crew. The fellow with his back to the camera is horse shoer Ron Dyer who was my deck captain. Later he would be seriously injured along with Bobby Gibbs when the elephant Sherma went on a rampage in the Miller Hippodrome in Baraboo.

I met Ron in Fla in 79 and he was a great Farrier, kinda hardass but great Farrier.

Thanks Johnny for all of your help in my Circus Life . You always looked after Bobby and me in our Gil Gray Show Days. I remember 1 time you made me get a haircut and i came back to the lot and still looked like i had hair you looked at me and said My God Buster go wash your hair and the black from around your ears ! Boy the good ole days. Casey
