There is nothing quite like seeing the wonder in a child’s eyes as the multitudes of motions, artistic acrobatics, and bounding beasts cross the three rings in a celebration of life, craft, and skill like none other in the world.  If that sounds poetic to you, it was meant to!  My fondest memories have come from the standing annual date my grandmother and I had to go see the circus, and even now it is just as exciting as it was when I was a wee one.  The sights, the sounds, the colors, the increasing activity culminating to a finale of epic proportions will always have large part of my heart.  Since my ‘Granny’ has passed, my mother has taken up the torch with my own children to keep this family tradition alive, and to keep the wonder and amazement in their hearts for life.  We are and always will be lifetime fans of the Ringling Bros/Barnum and Bailey circus!  Hope to see you there!
