My first outside, 2 day show...all over! Honestly, I am exhausted. For that reason, I will be short with words today.
Friday: set up... slanted venue, horrendous parking, lack of direction, forgotten tools. However, the tent was up, the heavy things hauled to the site by my husband, and we were finished ahead of schedule.
Saturday, Day 1: Rain, leaks, fog, wet feet, port-a-potties, sales (!!!), schooners, new friends, dogs, wool socks, excellent help (thanks Mom!), and a few odd people here and there.
Day 2, Sunday: Sunshine, warmth, dry feet, wind gusts, broken glass display, reorganization, sales (!!!!), more new friends, open tent, warm breezes, and gorgeous views.
All in all, it was a successful show. I had no expectations, made my booth fee and then some, received many compliments, and learned a thing or two about set-up, break down, and that force called wind!
