After many years of meaning-to, I finally went to a meeting of the Evergreen Juggling Club!

On Thursday Trish had an out-call, way down Cooper Point, so she dropped Orion and I off at Red Square.

On route to the library building we spied someone with a bag of clubs. I asked where and when they were meeting. 6 pm on the grass.

We walked staircases and rode elevators until then. We walked down to the 1st floor of the library and took the elevator to the 4th, 3rd and 2nd floors. We walked down to the 1st floor of the library and took the elevator to the basement and 2nd floors, then we walked up to the 3rd floor and back down again.

We saw Uncle Luke and his partial roommate Duckhugger. We ate veggie chicken nuggets with goddess dressing, salad (without a fork) with goddess dressing, grapes (a la carte), and saved the rice cakes for later.

Then we joined the jugglers already in progress. Although we tried various equipment (diablo, devil sticks, balls, clubs, cigar boxes, etc), we spent the majority of the 90 minutes with five brightly colored rings.

I'm so getting rings in the act. Oh, man.

There were about a dozen jugglers there, and they will apparently organize into some sort of 'circus' on Super Saturday.

Our plan is for Trish to massage in the morning, and Jusby to appear in the afternoon. Hope I have my cards ready by then.
