Ah well...it was the best of times it was the worst of times....ok, maybe a little too dramatic. The day started off pretty well, no rain once we arrived, and sunshine! That lasted until about 3:30 at which point a monsoon swept through the quiet downtown area of Burlington. I was VERY lucky to have my husband, best friend Jessica, and friends Dan + Jane there. They acted quickly to gather my goods into the store behind us. I think I only lost about 8 calendars. I cannot complain!! This poor man across from us in the street, had his tent canopy blow away, and a ton of broken frames/artwork! This being my first art festival experience, was a good one to learn some of the weather related events that can occur. Sales were slow, but lots of good comments and potential leads, and definitely a cherished day with husband and friends. Some pictures below to show my setup. How did Mark and Jessica elude the camera....hmmm...? Hope you all had a great Memorial Day! xo-Emiko
