Part One: Behind The Scenes CIRCUS BELLA (https://www.circusbella.org), the fabulous San Francisco-based troupe, recently completed a three-week stay over the holidays right in the middle of downtown San Francisco (East Cut). In a tent! Clowns, acrobats, juggling, aerialists, live music, the whole deal. These are behind-the-scenes photos; performance pics to come in the next post.
A self-assignment, I documented the entire process starting weeks before opening night, from raising the tent, through rehearsals and multiple performances, opening to closing night, plus extensive behind-the-scenes documentation. They let me backstage, a privilege I did not take for granted - that's a private space for any performer. Even though I knew some of the people already and had been around performances before, I was struck - flabbergasted, even - by every single person's intense camaraderie and collaboration while building the tent - a monumental process - and after that, developing and perfecting the show. Everyone pitched in, including performers who helped raise the tent and swept up between shows. Circus culture is an amazingly supportive one, a lesson for us all - me, anyway.
1 - Charis and Kirk working on the sign. 2 - Lifting the main tent support into place. 3 - Kirk and Julie juggling hats. 4 - Abigail backstage, Director, Ringmaster, Performer. 5 - Company meeting. 6 - Jamie, dog, and trailers. 7 - Veronica and Dwoira backstage peaking out at the performers. 8 - Natasha, Calvin, Jamie: clowns preparing to go on. 9 - Jack and Carlo - roustabouts and more - backstage. 10 - Toni, Carlo, and Ori "pulling" (literally) for Veronica.

I did it, my friends! I achieved my 105-mile 🚴🏾 ride goal and pedaled 107.5 miles to fight kids' cancer! And with September now officially over, I will give my legs a rest for only some days. LOL You know I love being outside. I will reflect on all I've achieved to support childhood cancer research and save little lives. I raised $1,000! and my fundraising goal was $550! As of right now, together with the rest of the cyclists, we clocked in 3,107,605 miles and raised $10,452, 486 (so far) to give kids with cancer the brighter futures they deserve... And it's all because of YOUR support I was able to be part of an amazing group. To celebrate this year's challenge, Cayden (pictured w/Thank you sign) was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia called acute lymphoblastic leukemia PH+ when he was only 3 years old. He endured two years of chemotherapy treatment, and despite some post-treatment side effects, he's now enjoying life as a normal kid. ❤️ THANK YOU TO MY SUPPORTERS WHO SUPPORTED ME THIS SEPTEMBER! I, seriously couldn't have done it without YOU. You are TEAM MOVIN' GROOVIN' for life. Leonard James Loring Sagan Claudia Lomeli-Graphix Stephanie O'Keefe R Franklin James Deanna Marie Orsot Maile Sandridge Bruce Agid Majeid Crawford Bibi Pegueros Lani J Pittman Tina M. Yun Hazel Soto Donovan Lacy Sylvia Erickson Leanne Ballonado Becky Brewer Sonali Ved Maya Moore Lydia Fourmy Thank you! Here are some images of my September rides! Respectfully yours, Vanessa Ross 🚴🏾🚴🏾🚴🏾🚴🏾 P.S. My profile will remain active until the end of October, so there is still time to donate to help me achieve more than $1,000! 😜 Link in bio. #greatcyclechallenge #movingroovinproduction #goexplore #gobike #gorun #gowalk #sfnative #sanfranciscan (at San Francisco, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjTZqcwPdAvbJoaED0W02RzUS5mc6UlinIgL-00/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Due Date Mayes! If you came today, we would be each other’s half birthday 🥳 We’re so grateful she came a lil early. After all, if you’re 5 mins early, you’re late, you know? ⏱ Having arrived at the hospital super early in the morning on 12/8, I was initially hoping for a 12/8 baby because those numbers are considered good luck in Chinese culture 🤑 But naturally, she was a lil stubborn and made her entrance 24 hours after getting to the hospital. My mom brought up a good point. She taught me how to add playing blackjack, and a 12/9 birthday can also be good luck because 12+9=21 ♠️🎰🧧 Anyway, more Mayes! 👇🏽 As you can see, Mayes is my little mini me 👯♀️ Last night we were blessed with delicious poke by the wonderful @hirocatering 🍣 I missed raw fish so much during the pregnancy, so this was a real treat. And look at the presentation! 👀✨ Also had my first drink post partum! I thought it would be a Jamie/ginger, but having a Tommy’s Margarita was PERFECT ❤️🔥 Fun fact: Julio and I went to the same grade school and high school! 🤓 #sfnative Swipe to the last photo for a lil extra love from Mayes 😘 #MayesEmoryBooker https://www.instagram.com/p/CXv_A7LFHAn/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is San Francisco. This is the city I have called home since birth and love more than any other city that I have been to. Some of my favorite geographical parts of the city are the rolling hills and thick fog. My favorite ‘spots’ in SF include, Dolores Park, Noe Valley, AT&T Park (now Oracle Park) and the Ferry Building.
