No Lions, But Tigers & Bears--Oh My!

It's been 5 yrs since we last ventured to the "free" circus...I decided it was worth the adult admission since the boys got in without charge--Dane had no choice but to go along for the ride when he was 3 mos old, but Luke's age made him a little more restless; however, acts kept their attn for the most part:) Please ignore the facts that we look like a hot mess but fit right in with rest o' spectators! Plus camera wasn't cooperating & camerawoman was clueless so missed a lot o' good ones. Nevertheless pictured here 'cuz I know you're gonna sleep better having seen 'em:

Ginormous white tiger
Pretty pathetic clown helping cotton-candy colored dog do moon walk:) His cohorts danced around more on 2 feet more than standard 4 & even featured boxing duel?!
Kinda creepy in an entertaining way:)
Boys checking out cage in which the grand finale featured not one, but two motorcyclists
cruising around @ once!
The circus mgmt are no fools though & compensated for free admission once in the gate
c/o elephant ride for the younger 2--wanted to accom them, but dudes in charge weren't feelin' very generous & Luke was cool with big bro behind him:)















& picture with a bear during intermission!
They actually took one close-up for us, but these were mine on the side--



















Aside from somewhat burlesque trapeze-type "artists", we thoroughly enjoyed the show & turned out better than the BYU game that we had to miss on TV @ the same time!
