October 26, Hugo.
Nicolas did the split last week, after practicing for three months.
Dylan is pretty close but does not quite touch the ground yet. Both are in for a present.

Sightings.
October 26, Hugo.
Somewhere on highway 70: "Show pigs."
And my favorite creek of the circus road: Muddy Boggy Creek, also on highway 70.

Home.
Here it is: a six o'clock call for the last jump, the home run to Hugo, no hurdles but short of a few people who left for other places last night, until next season farewell, and Dylan wakes up as we settle into our spot in winter quarters and says, "This is my favorite lot."
We're home for the rest of the year.
Last show.
October 25, Ardmore.
Last show, last pictures, and the usual nostalgia for what's ending.
This was a good season for the Kelly Miller Circus, good weather, so little mud it could hardly be called a mud show, a quiet season, and we missed half of it but the boys are five and six and the circus is all they've known, and if this was our last season as a circus family I don't want to think about it, not now.
Last shows, goodbye and see you next year, I will cherish this circus family forever and ever, like a children's tale.

The end: the Halloween party.
October 24, Ardmore.
Last jump, last lot, last town, and the Halloween party.
We dressed Dylan and Nicolas as the Vazquez Circus clowns in their Martian act. They won second place. It was a great party, and the costumes were better than ever. The Loyal/Fusco tribe outdid themselves again, as the Flintstones family, complete with a Flintstones foam buggy.
