Kerry,

I got my Circus tent from Norton Auctioneers of Michigan. If you can possibly believe it; this internationally known Auction Company has had two auctions in New Boston, NH in the past 5 years. They use the Hillsborough County Fair Grounds. It's only 3 miles from my house. These guys specialize in auctioning Circuses (is that the right plural for circus?), Carnivals, & Amusement Parks. If you ever get a chance to attend one of their auctions by all means GO! This is one of the most organized operations you will ever see. They auctioned New England Playworld (formally Benson's Wild Animal Farm) in Hudson, NH in the late 1980's. I went to that auction with my folks. My Dad bid on the gorilla. Yup, it was a real live gorilla. My Mom put her foot down on that one though. He got a very long lecture. Going anywhere with him is a kick! He's even crazier that Tyrus Mulkey!
