Weekend update

[revchris]

We spent the weekend trying to sell teeka's jewelry at the Cotswold Renaissance Faire.

We had fun, didn't really make any money, but aren't down much from it either. We did, however, get really sunburned. It's the whole "first faire of the year" thing, as we start to realize all the small things we forgot to bring along and suddenly the camper becomes more useful, since I don't think we can really get everything in the truck if we're going camping too anymore.

This is the third year for Cotswold, but it's their first spring faire. Of course, being up against the Burlington Chocolate Festival, an unexpectedly expanded soccer tournament (that went two weekends instead of its original one non-overlapping weekend), several proms, and a high school graduation, there weren't a lot of people. Having the Chief of Police decide (for no known reason according to the sergeant who got to deliver the message and the signs) that the advertising signs along the main highways had to go just before noon on Sunday didn't help either.

Pictures will be up in a few days (I have 225 of them to sort through first).

Oy, you've got a bad link there, on the link to her web site. You've got a trailing quotation mark.

Actually, I was missing a leading quotation mark, and when LJ autoformatted the page, it added the quotes around the link for me, leaving me with an extra one.

Of course, when I went to fix it, the broken link crashed my netscape, and then before I could crank it back up to fix it, I had to go do work stuff.
