Pretty exciting times!


Didn't take too long for my mother to show up via the Hugo Express.
I'd get a phone call that she was at the Bus Depot and there she would be with her little dog inside a handbag.
Sometime later in Madison Sq. Garden I was notified a lady was inquiring about me at the back door, there she was bag in hand.
The wonderful things she must have had to tell the folks in Hugo and the relatives in Ortonville.

Buckles,
I got to meet Babe one time in Hugo.
I was with several other fans and Ted Bowman got us an invite to see some of the great circus albums of your Dad's you now own.
There was some route cards that Ted was drooling all over as he wanted them for his route card collection.
She was very gracious to us fans and we really enjoyed our visit with her.
Bill and Babe two greats of the old time circus.
