Circus Smirkus.

July 14, Malta.

I did laundry with the kids while Fridman worked on the school house and then we rushed to see Circus Smirkus this afternoon at the Saratoga Springs raceway, a student circus performing during the summer, and were delighted by the show, as well as the equipment (a Canobio tent, state-of-the-art light and sound system) and overall professionalism of the whole production.

Travel day.

July 12, Cairo.

Today was another travel day and we didn't make it to this lot until four o'clock, this being an unusually long jump, and as always some problems arising on the road, first Casey's truck again, transmission went out, then Carolyn's truck, which overheated.
It was a wonderful treat, those five days in Rhode Island, the ocean, the little park beach, the endless parking lot perfect for kids riding their bikes, five days of not waking up early, we could get used to this, but it's over.

The pond.


July 8, Charlestown.

Yesterday was a travel day and we arrived just in time for cook house after having stopped for Casey and endured drivers going from bad to worse. I missed a left exit on I-95, driving almost two miles with my signal on trying to move lanes and nobody letting me.
The day turned hot and in the afternoon we went to the beach at the little pond by the playground, as we did last year. The circus is parked right next to them this year.
Fond memories of catching fish and teaching Dylan how to swim. This time around Nicolas was the one stealing the show with his antics. He started being a bit of a clown about a month ago, changing overnight from a shy little man into a relentless trickster and performer.
