Staying current...
Jun. 27th, 2006 12:28 pmMy dear ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
archway just sent me a new icon from this past weekend; can't get much more current than that. (Thanks, love! *smooch*) From the angle, it's obvious that I was speaking with a child. I must say, some of the cutest children and SO polite that I remember seeing anywhere, have attended this faire so far.
I think I got more hugs this past Saturday, with nearly each one asking for permission first, than I've ever gotten in any one faire day before.
Spoke with Di last night; she called all excited that we'd been all over the news; Fox at 9, NBC and CBS at both 6 and 10 with voice-overs and again more today. They showed the web-site on the screen and the hits have increased by a bunch. A local store is selling tickets and they've run out twice. Two newspapers have shown up at site, fortunately the lovely blacksmith from OKRF and his sweet wife who makes baskets and brooms, are staying out on site and gave lovely interviews. Yay! for pro-active and involved vendors. There will apparently be two new local vendors out this weekend; one of stained-glass and one potter...getting new local vendors rocks.
Yes, I still owe my run-down of the weekend; I'll try to do that this afternoon. Still muchly to do. I went to storage yesterday to find the Statue of Liberty stuff but couldn't find the trunk that the wig/crown and torch are in so Bruce and I went back last night. Sure enough, it was all the way to the back on the bottom underneath the china hutch. Yes, it still breaks my heart that my beautiful walnut table, hutch and chairs are sitting in storge but when is there time to do something about them? *sigh*
Now, I'm off to get paint to re-do the pedestal and touch up headpiece and torch and run by Salvation Army to drop off bags of clothes that were still in there.
Not quite zooming....
