If you are interested in circus life, you would enjoy this. It has 2 circus museums, an art museum with some of Ringling's personal collection, and a huge estate built right on the water.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02723142243524898712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655628369632362733.post-16314750442121318512011-05-12T10:26:03.542-04:002011-05-12T10:26:03.542-04:00yeah, the cover of the book made it look interesti...yeah, the cover of the book made it look interesting. maybe i'll read it sometime after I plow through Gulag Archipelago which may take a long long timeR Kornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03917458728174033702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655628369632362733.post-14379211350542734632011-05-12T09:04:24.147-04:002011-05-12T09:04:24.147-04:00I was thinking about checking out this movie, but ...I was thinking about checking out this movie, but I didn't know of anyone who had seen it.
