He selected two children; the boy received a 6 ft. ostrich and the girl a rainbow. I just stepped in at the last minute to announce and take the act off, Billy always got a big hand.<br />Several times a week a child would be playing with their balloon creation and seek out Billy after the show to do repairs. Whether the balloon need a little fixing or it had to be completely remade, Billy would always take the time to work his magic.<br /><br />The act was presented in silence with appropriate music, it got "ohhs" and "ahhs" from the crowd who had never seen such elaborate balloon art.<br /><br />Yes, we are moving part of the operation to Sarasota. Our oldest daughters, Katie (29) and Margaret (24) will run the New York office. I share the girls' ages because so many show folks know them from when they were little kids.<br /><br />Anybody seen my sunscreen?Mike Naughtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08279545515945103377noreply@blogger.com
