Fair

We have survived three days at the fair . Yesterday we sat in an UN-airconditioned room for 8 hours . .Our booth was pretty dull ..We had about 6 people come in with pottery and ceramics. People kept coming to us saying "When Laverne was here , she did this and that." I would get up every now and then to talk to people in the other booths. I have learned the life-history of everyone in the place. The needlework person was very busy..She had three long tables piled high with entries. People walked by our booth all day with entries for the photography exhibit. That table was stacked high. It will be a hard one to judge.
Our pieces may all get a blue ribbon because of so few entries.
Rose and Paul came by when we were getting ready to leave...Rose could tell that we were very tired and hot . She volunteered her and Paul to give us a break Saturday. I told her.."You can't ask Paul to sit at the Fair on his day off. We are going to work out something with them..Rose is still on crutches, so she can't go far...
The fair hasn't officially opened yet, so we have 10 more days of 10 hour days. Then we will have our heads examined.
