An Amherstburg Tradition

What better way to spend Mothers’ Day? Every year, the carnival comes to town and sets up in the park.

What better way for a quality Mother/Child bonding experience than to give in to the whining and spending the afternoon there. I’m told by my wife that that’s not quite how it’s supposed to work. The father is to enjoy the bonding experience so that the mother can enjoy the peace and quiet. D’oh!

Speaking of D’oh!, ever wonder what the “Carnie Code” is? Is it a way to get free rides on the midway? Check it out at: http://www.sideshowworld.com/atsCarnyCode1.html

Or, back off the URL to read all about sideshows in general. http://www.sideshowworld.com/ See pictures of the two headed snake, check out Lobster Boy or just read about the Other Side of the Midway.

And, a tribute to Mothers.

Another Amherstburg tradition? It always rains and it appears that this year will be no different!

Happy Mothers’ Day!
