Apparently we Like Elephants.

My wife’s mom sent her a picture today of when the Circus visited Morgan City, LA when she was younger.

Seeing that, I remembered when the Circus came to Phoenix, in the day I worked for KRUX and I got to ride the lead Elephant from the Circus Train to the State Fair Grounds where the circus was going to perform.

I can remember the ride, not the smoothest, not like riding a horse, but it was fun.  There in my white Jump suit with a Green K R U X on the back.  I bought that, not the station.  I think that was the only time I wore it.   Don’t know where I got the hat.   Radio History.

    2. Egad! You look like Rudyard Kipling, old boy! What a neat piece of history, and a tidbit I did not know about you.
