Those decent stands and reasonable jumps make going carny look not so bad--until you have one day to make 1432 miles into Brandon and show the next day. What a morning after that must have been. We Castle show veterans can testify in sympathy.

Speaking of Brandon, it was among the 3 brand-new buildings I opened as the first circus act to play them. They were Tuscon, Medicine Hat, and Brandon. Granted, this was only because as the cat act, I was first in the show, but I am unabashed in making the claim, nonetheless.
