We can add Arizona to our list of places where we’ve set up our wares and sold some shard jewelry.
We were pleased with how things went for us at the Via Colori Festival in Glendale, AZ (outside of Phoenix)… we met a lot of great people and sales were steady throughout the day.
I don’t think many of the other vendors were happy though… the crowds just weren’t there and jewelry seemed like the only thing that was selling. It didn’t help that there were only 30 vendors instead of 150, and most vendors didn’t know this was a first time event in Glendale (we didn’t).
The good news is that we left the park on Saturday saying, “Even if we don’t sell a single piece tomorrow, the show would be a success.” We almost ate our words. The day was a complete washout and vendors were packing up before the show opened… two tents were blown over during the night from the storms too. Fortunately, our set-up was safe, and we still sold $100 worth 
Heavy rains at Jim and Betty's
Angel Porn
After we got soaked to our underwear while packing up the tent and jewelry, the sun decided to come out and dry things up a bit… if we had just waited an hour. One advantage to traveling with our house — we were able to change into dry stores and visit some of the antique stores in Glendale.
Liam found some interesting bits for the cottage. For some reason, I just kept finding cherub porn… the weirdest, semi-sexual images of angels I’d ever seen.
Then we headed back to Jim and Betty’s where they fed us well… AGAIN… and we watched the Oscars. Quite a mixed-bag of things.

I am glad to h ere that you had a good day in Glendale, despite the weather.
Give Jim & Betty big hugs from me. I won’t be up on Saturday, as I am helping get Sunday’s festival up set up. Let me know when to expect you in the following week. The Irish Cook-oof was a grand success yesterday, as was the Emerald Ball.
Corey..angel porn…seriously? I worry about you sometimes, a chara
Have a grand time with Jim & Betty…
