An unidentified woman doing a high wire act in front of Thriftway in Fairhaven, Washington

A large crowd of onlookers, many of them children. There appear to be two wires - she has one foot and one hand on the higher one. She is dressed in a two piece glittery costume with net sleeves and a short net veil. It appears to be night; the street light is lighted. This act was likely part of Thriftway's Circus Days that Thriftway's owner Robert Hayden sponsored.
