This show is weird, but cool too. It isn't fast paced, everything seems to be one notch slower. I think that is the whole vibe of the festival, to go back in time, to celebrate a slower pace. No one seems to be in a rush, everyone seems more friendly. It is easy to have and keep a smile on my face all day and it is hard to find anything to complain about.
The show is well run, fabulously organized, and a pleasure to take part in. And my sales are strong, so I have nothing to complain about and nothing too exciting to even say.
One cool ting happened on Saturday... first let me say how friends are funny things, there are people I see all the time, but only consider acquaintances, but people that I barely ever see that I consider friends. People you can just pick up with right where you left off even though months or even years have passed. I consider my friend April to be one of those people. We don't see each other enough, and it is my fault. I let my busy schedule keep me from doing things and I use it as an excuse to sit home and be lazy rather than go out and do things and see people.
Saturday a lovely couple came up to the booth bearing gifts. It was April's parents and they had a bag of books, a heavy bag of books. Now there is love for you, to haul around books through this huge show, to give them to this woman you have never met, all for your daughter. So in this bag is a note from April, about how she had been collecting these books for me, but we haven't seen each other in a while, so she thought ahead enough to have her parents bring them to a show for me. WOW!!
So April, I hope you read this.. Thank You! And after this long, monster show, I will call and we can have lunch, and catch up. I am sorry I am such a bad friend, but I want you to know that I consider you a great one!
