Stuff

We had a beautiful couple of days for the last weekend of the festival: lovely weather, huge crowds, and a Celtic Christmas theme that had everybody in the holiday shopping mood. It was great! I sold out of ocarinas by three o'clock on Sunday afternoon. (Yay for having money to buy a new transmission!) The rest of the day was spent walking around the fair instead of working. I watched a couple of shows that I've been wanting to see for years, and at the end of the day I went up to the arena to see the fireworks show. It is so much more spectacular from the top of the hill than it is through the trees behind the cart.



The end of a show is always a little sad, especially when I know I won't be going on the road again for a while. Today, people are packing up to go to Louisiana and Florida and Arizona. Part of me is just dying to do the same--I'll miss having friends nearby--but mostly I'm just looking forward to staying in one place to rest.
