My wife says she saw them setting up at the Galleria on Thursday. I'm going to try to get out to see them before they leave. I'm not familiar with this show.

This is because there is very few real carnies left. The old feeling is gone on America's midways. I feel like a dinosaur. And before anybody tells me I am one. I know I am one. I am not a first of May and I do know what lovesingame means.

Storage is incorrect if you're a carny and talking about where rides are parked for the winter, it's a winter quarters. Even if you have more then one place you park the rides and if you only work on them at another place. Of course, if you don't think of opening as springing and closing as sloughing, then it may be storage after all.

Our WQ is very small so for a couple of years we used to put our stuff in a storage yard, maybe that was what he was refering to. I wouldnt call that a WQ.

Six cat I'm not gonna argue the storage point with you,however the being carnie thing I will, many on this board know me and know that I am a born and raised in the biz carnie 4th generation carnie and storage is when you rent a building far from your winter quarters and far from your Yard as we call it in the biz and you pack away the rides that are not going to be touched till you come back in the spring and pull em out of storage and go play carnival agian with them. this is not your normal situation that may be where the confusion comes from
