Went to market today, it was gorgeous this morning. "Awesome" got set up, hung the jewelry, put on the SMILE, had fabulous customer response, tourists abundant, had a good market going...And then...BOOM! Thunder, Lightning, Rain, Wind, oh yeah, lets not forget frickin' HAIL. Cripes, we had 6 inches of hail in our awning. It would have looked like winter, but geez, it rained a couple inches in like 5 minutes, so it was hard to tell what was really happening, You know, a ripping river of water flowing thru the booth, like we were the Kalispell Fork of the Flathead River. I've never seen so many soaking wet Artists, Craftsman, Farmers and greenhous People. And with the exception of the few of us in total hysterics, I don't think I saw one tiny smile. (huh? that's so surprising, it's such a pleasure to try to hold down a metal framed tent in a lightning storm!) OK mighty Weather Gods, W.T.F.? I'm now going in to take a hot shower and make a drink, I'm thinking something heavily VODKAish. May all of your fights with the Weather Gods be 'NOT' in a metal tent.
