Sunday's sale at Waynesville was much better than last month. There were no big crowds but there were more people than last month and I made several nice sales and a few small ones. My pottery friend Karen Herbert and her husband Larry came up from Bethel and set up across from me. It's nice to have a friendly face around.
About 4:00 pm the sky opened up, we got drenched, all the people left and we started packing up. There was water running 3 inches deep in the gutter at the back of the booth but the tent held fast and shed water like a duck.I brought way too much stuff again so I was the last one left when a nice lady from North Dakota showed up wanting to see some pots. Well, they weren't all in the truck yet so I opened a box, showed her 3 pots and sold her one of them for $50.00. Sometimes it pays to pack slowly.

I have a 3-day series started in May that I am doing as well in the tent venue. Rain not so much an issue but OMG the WIND. I have stood for 4 hrs just holding on to a tent pole hoping to not fly away G. It's a local show about 20 minutes from where I live and goes all summer once a month. Good Luck to you love your blog!
