Day three, pack out and home....
The nicest day thus far for the weekend. Sun was out, sky was blue and there were some humans present (and cheerful). We had breakfast again at Hudson Deli and headed for the show well sated. Bought a handful of nice things.
It seemed to start a bit slower, but picked up quickly and was rather steady through the day. Several sales and what will, with luck, turn out to be good first contacts. Overall, a very nice day.
It was a great fair. Well run and painless. Our location does not make me jump with joy, but it has potential. We have not figured out what our schedule looks like for next year, but this would definitely be on our short list for another go.
I did manage to be either the last one out or very close to it (I *might* have beaten Bruce out by a step or two). My assistant, while very good and moderately helpful, was not particularly strong on the packing/lifting/sorting front....though very good on the overt cuteness and cheery disposition fronts...which are good, too.
We were out at 7pm. Made it to Reins Deli for a late dinner that was extremely entertaining (more on this later) and made it home around 1am. Eli slept the vast majority of the way...which was the rational thing to do.
Addendum: There will be a follow-up to this weekend re my assistant...including tales of adventure and chopped liver (and, possibly, a pod containing my real son).

Already loving the "Salem Witchcraft" we picked up from you. Looks good next to "Universal Magnetism" on our shelf. Thanks for making the trip down.
