On the road again, goin' places that I've never beenSeein' things that I may never see again..
In the early '80's my bean sister tried out to be a clown with
Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus.
At that time, hundreds of people went to the auditions all over the country, but very few were chosen to go to their 'Clown College' in Florida. She was one of the lucky ones (at that time) to attend and one of the few chosen to go on the ROAD with them. She was on the Red Unit and lived full time on the train. Gunther called her 'Clownie' and was always so nice to her.
When in Atlanta, all the clowns would come to our house and spend the night. We had a big breakfast the next morning and sent them on their way. They were all a lot of fun and of course had outstanding personalities. Below is a picture of her with our Rainbow Angels, Mr. Nicholas and Georgia. I am also there in the middle!! She enjoyed her years with them, but Momma was glad to have her stay home and begin a somewhat normal life.
The tabby is my brofur Mr. Nicholas, and on the other side of me is
my sisfur, Georgia. They are Rainbow Angels and we miss them so.
