Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

DIDN'T YOU JUST LOVE DOIN' WINTER DATES

Parked in a parking lot that was too close to the building to drive, & too far to walk in freezing cold weather.


With no running water, & electricity so weak it barely handled one light bulb, or having the fuse blow out because someone was using an electric heater.

And how about the kerosene stove, you would turn on the kerosene, and forget it, then you had to sop up the excess kerosene with newspapers. Or if you lit it there were flames coming out of the chimney pipe.


This neighborhood looks familiar but I can't decide if it is Toronto, or Montreal. Toronto was usually in Oct., so it is more likely the latter.

Many a time we all whent through that snowing dilemma situation, and how cold did it get'. Yes' some of those where the hard days with chidrens, and for the acts that had animals. but some of the elephants did not mind at all, as they where giving some good old wisky.
