Ted had one of the finest teeter board acts in the country. He was the bottom man in his act. The other performers in his act were Paula and Russ Saunders and Ba Workmeister and others. Ted finally got his own circus after many years of hard work, he also got himself an elephant. Dad and I took the chimp act on Teds first season out. Read the wonderful comment.

This picture was taken at Legend City, Tempe, AZ in 1977. Henry Bros. Circus was in full swing. My two sons, Solon and Gabe, performed with the other animals in the circus.
