Late start.

May 15, Loveland.

It's one o'clock and we've just arrived onto the lot.
There was a last-minute change of plans with the sponsors today, apparently over the rain we've had (in truth we pretty much destroy pristine fields when we pull tractor trailers on them after the rain,) so we had to park and wait until the high school let out (early) and we could go in and set up on its parking lot.
In the meantime it looked like all the circus kids were at McDonald going wild in the play area. We did laundry across the street while eating breakfast, and even found much-needed pajamas for Dylan next door at a second-hand store.
The bets are off as to whether the crew can raise the tent in time for the show.
