Orion and I are flying out of Sea-Tac on Wednesday night at 10 PM. We arrive in Detroit at 5 AM Thursday. It was a surprise for Grampa Dave’s 60th birthday.
Awesome, what luck! Dad knows we’re coming and has found an event that meets ALL of our criteria.
It’s close, it’s entertaining, and it’s free!
It’s a library show!
Although they don’t have clowns they DO have a mime and a magician. http://chelsea.lib.mi.us/summerfest08.htm
Grump’s neighbor!
So we’re set for Friday the 25th, Dad’s birthday. Who wouldn’t want a free show on their birthday?
And we needed to go to the library anyway so Orion could have a batch of books for naptime and night-night time stories.
I e-mailed these folks asking for an interview. They do therapeutic humor in Canada.

but it’s on Friday at 4pm… however, she’s at the Windsor library on Monday/ Tuesday.
I’m especially interested in crossing the border into Canada so I will be a nationally and internationally recognized clown.
This gal is out of Kalamazoo

I really like this guy’s site, but I don’t know if he’s doing much clowning.

and he’s in Westland. I think he’s spending more time with his Beatles tribute band.

I really DON’T like this site, but they’re in Detroit. They’ll be face-painting Sundays before the Tigers games. Yay, sports!

On the very last night our favorite band is playing in Ann Arbor as the LAST stop of their Unlimited Enthusiasm Tour.
Harry and the Potters will be at the Blind Pig! http://www.eskimolabs.com/hp/shows.htm
We will see them in Olympia tonight (Tuesday, July 22nd), so I suspect we’ll have run out of steam by Tuesday the 5th… since our return flight leaves at 6 AM on the 6th!
please RSVP if you want to join us on any of these adventures or you have some of your own to suggest.
