Here was the scene at Latus this afternoon. The cell phone doesn't make for museum-quality pics, but enough to give you a taste of the event. I think it will be going on all weekend, for those around PDX who might be interested.

I would try it, given the chance. Not Colin's (Who I just spoke to by email - he has a new trick under construction) - but a solid one, I'd have a go for sure. DD after all :-)

In a heartbeat . . . I remember this from the fairs in Kansas when I was a kid.

Oh yes, the Ball of Death! For me, that was always the highlight of the circus. This thing was just as good because A) the whole setup (including bikes) looked completely worn and rickety, and B) we were literally inches from the action standing around the top of the wall.
