Travel day's little things.

June 21, Mendon.

Today was a travel day. We arrived at nine o'clock and spent the rest of the day working, doing laundry, the usual stuff of a day.
Trailers were parked haphazard around the lot, surprising against the precise order of the circus with or without the tent going up; the school parking lot next door where they would have been arranged was off limits for the day, for apparently school officials had no knowledge we were coming. We ended up wedged at the entrance to the cook house tent, and rather liked it. We are staying here tomorrow (no need to wake up early to move.)
The guys were listening to Mexican music at John and Reyna's, the pie car this year, passing the afternoon away.
It almost seems as if we don't know what to do with ourselves when we have the day off.
