Recently, I went to the circus for the first time in my life... at 36. Yeah, that's right. I'd never been before. I don't feel especially deprived because of this, but it was wicked cool! The only part that I was uncomfortable with was the 'preforming bear' act. I'm very conscious of the fact that bears belong in the wild. Period. Maybe zoo's, but again, that would probably be the only exception. They're preditors and I wonder why people are shocked when a bear attack happens. Shall I note Sigfreid and Roy? My case exactly. The last time a circus was in town PETA boycotted it. The bears had deep grooves on their snouts and it made me cringe. *sigh*

BUT! Here's a pic of my lovely teenager (the cute one in the front), my brother - who looks like Larry the Cable Guy, and my sister-in-law (it was a crap camera and her shot is kinda dark) from that night!
