Post Fair Exhaustion

It was an absolutely beautiful day - Carolina Blue skies, warm, an occasional breeze (note to self - get weights for tent) A wonderful local Celtic band - Barrowburn - played for several hours, what fun! Not great traffic at the show, but I met some great people and renewed old friendships. My dear friend and fellow artist, Denita, helped me with setup - sat and chatted and wrapped packages and chatted and sat and helped break things down. Yummy dinner at Cozumel - heavenly air conditioning (that warm turned downright hot). Dear friend and fellow artist, Elizabeth came up from Wilmington and stayed to have dinner. My friend Ray from work stopped by (but Jack the faithful mostly lab stayed home). I'm afraid Art and Craft Fairs are just not his thing. It's wonderful to have good friends who support you with everything from hard labor to wonderful company and supportive words.

I'm very pleased with the reception my Guardian Angels received - I've had fun making them. It's interesting how working on something like a show gets your brain moving in directions of new creations - of course, you have to stay focused and get things completed - I sure have some fun new things to try out!

Photos soon - they're in Denita's camera, have to wait for them to slip out into cyberland so I can load them.
