it having a cooler than usual forecast for the weekend.... on Saturday i re-loaded the van, drove 6 mumble hours to Pennsic, waited in a stunningly long line, checked in with merchant control (found out i have a form i have to fix) and filled out my OMG form for the medical staff....
and got the pavilion set up
mostly
with TONS of help from neighbors
then at 8 pm i got in the car and drove home
yes, about 14 hours of driving for a handful of hours on site. watch, now it will be cool and dry on Thursday too! if i hadnt gone to set up my tent it would have been hot or raining...
ahem
yes i return to Pennsic on Thursday.
i HOPE to be open for business on Friday, although I expect it to be less than spiffy and neat before saturday.
I am in space 42.
on "Broadway" if i remember the street names right. between the booksellers and Your Inner Vagabond... so as you can see i am in DIRE danger of spending all my money...
anyway i have three "Pennsic resistant" spinning wheels (Babe wheels) for sale, a HUGE inventory of beads and pearls, and yes i got some re stock on my linen and silk threads.. although , no, not as much as i would have liked.
if you need scissors or other specialty items, PLEASE call or email me as soon as possible so i can make sure i have it in stock. my phone and email are on fabric dragon dot com webpage.
it looks like i will be camping in my merchant space this year, so i am pretty easy to find.
meanwhile i have to get all that work done for school and i am WAY behind.
if its possible i will simply not take any classes next summer. if that is NOT possible i will take very FEW classes next summer.. because this is really tough and these are not the very time intensive classes!
