Tacky, Overpriced and Disruptive, I like it.
The notion of running off to join the circus never much appealed to when I read about it in the books little boys used to read. I thought it sounded like a bad idea.
The Deshler Carnival is about as close we get to the circus coming to Beaver and of course we’ve had the prerequisite late afternoon thunderstorms ever since the big trucks rolled into town last weekend. Being close by gives those of us at the church every day and close-up view of life in the carnival and all its workers have to do. Nothing about it would make me want to run away and join it.
