We got rained on this year. :(
Friday weather was fair and visitors seemed higher than normal, but Saturday the crowd was noticeably thinner as it rained the better part of the afternoon. Sunday also seemed slower than usual, tho the weather wasn't bad. Overall, it looked like most folks displaying had a 'good to excellent' show.
My queen bed got a lot of attention, and it and the nitestands sold early Friday afternoon. The nice lady let me keep it 'til Sunday afternoon to show...and that was good not only because the booth woulda been looking naked without it, but because I took an order for a king Saturday. :p
The Mission rocker also showed well, and also sold Friday. This buyer was also 'touristing' and left it with me until Sunday.
As usual, the Morris chair got a lot of lookers, a handful of them 'serious'...but none of them writing a check.
A lot of 'obvious' woodworkers stopped and chatted, but nobody introduced themselves...so if I talked to you, it was nice 'meeting' you.
Here's some pics of my display...hope you all had a nice relaxing weekend!
