When the Circus Comes to Town
Well, it's not a circus so much as it is a carnival. Here are some photos/videos of the girls.
Bria was eyballin' the Tornado from the time it arrived in the park (they started assembling everything a couple days ago, and we'd pass it going to and from school).
And what carnival would be complete without a ferris wheel?
Ah, the piece de resistance, the Paratrooper. I'm guestimating this bad boy is between 25-30 feet tall, and the carnie working it told me that the speed is 14 RPMs, which equates to about 26 MPH. It goes forward for a few minutes, stops, then goes backwards for a few minutes. In this VIDEO, Deb got the girls on camera right as they started the backward cycle--watch how FAST it goes.

Even though the late Gracie Fulton was not orignially from the Lone Star State, she was truly a Texan at heart. She told me more times than I can remember, "You Texans are so like Rhodesian farmers. We are all brothers and sisters." While we will miss her very badly, I'm thankful she was able to finish her wonderful book.
These musicians all have roots back to good ol' Santa Fe, TX.
