Daniel and his family circus were doing weird free theatre among the rock promontory parks of these hills, in those ancient days.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Yxx8fdXVrQ" rel="nofollow">some home movies turned up lately...</a>TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.com
