Around the Venue


Another Lakeshore Arts Festival is in the books. I'm not sure I'll do it next year. It is expensive. It's two days. It's outside so you have to deal with the weather. The event runs for a full 8 hours each day. Last year I did not cover expenses. This year I just barely broke even.

Anyway, here was my canopy partner for this weekend. Lori Hudson, fellow author. We've known each other for a lot of years, but I'd never been right next to her before. We had a good time getting acquainted. We have a lot more in common than writing books.

I am beyond jaded with vendor events. I'm not much of a shopper anyway, and I see tons of beautiful artisan and fine art stuff all the time at these venues. I did see some pottery I liked- blue patterns.

This was creative. If you can't even keep succulents alive, you can have a garden of stained glass ones.

As usual, the fancy lawn sprinklers were right across from us. They are mesmerizing to watch. They always sell a lot of them despite being pricy.

It was hot. I am beat. Feeling slightly crabby. Sorry... I know that's not quality. I am NOT setting an alarm clock for tomorrow morning. That will help relieve the crabbiness!
