Outdoor Show in Detroit Lakes, MN

We pulled it off in MN! We did an outdoor show with no cameras or lights. This is a very tall order. Magic is not supposed to be done outside with wind and such. Plus, people were surrounding the stage. Some people were leaning up against the backside of the stage.

However, we did it! We simply did very visual stuff that mostly entailed escapes and stunts. Those sort of things usually work very well outdoors. It was still tough, though. People's attention spans are even shorter outside. The audience in MN was great, though! I'm so pleased that we were able to do it.

The weather was actually very pleasant in MN. I didn't know what to expect. It got down into the 50's at night. During the day, it felt like spring weather, so it was perfect for a festival. It stayed light until 10pm. I wasn't expecting that!

hahaha is because you was in a steppe biome. Is almost like a desert. Cold nights, warm days.
And the most close you are to the pole. the longest the days are. Until there are places where the day stays 6 months and the night other 6 months. crazy ha!
