Turning Up The Heat at The Lodge

The Lodge at Cold Spring turned up the heat this past Sunday with a blazing performance from Eric Girardi. Eric dazzled residents with his fire juggling and fire breathing performances. He lit three juggling pins and tossed them around like they were simply juggling balls. He didn’t just toss them through the air; he was tossing them through his leg and even spun around to catch a few of them blind. His control was simply amazing. Apparently all of that juggling made Eric a little hungry, as he did some fire eating for the next part of his performance. He stuck a burning stick in his mouth, and let out a flaming exhale. It was definitely a breathtaking performance. To cap it all off, Eric lit off some fireworks at the end of the show.

This was not the first time Eric has shown off his skills to Lodge residents. About a month ago during Memorial Day Weekend, Eric stopped by to show off his world-ranked yo-yo skills. Some of Eric’s other skills include knife juggling and stilt walking. Taken from his website, Eric’s mission is to provide a one-of-a-kind breathtaking performance of object manipulation and to bring once stagnant objects to life as art in motion. He certainly lived up to his own expectations with this performance.
