Road Trip

The show last weekend was a great success – sold a good amount, gained three commissions and others that say they will contact me with some other work they would like.  I usually take those with a grain of salt, because you don’t hear from them often, it's a good exit line when they have sticker shock and can’t afford things – but maybe I’ll be surprised. 

My Mom came from Santa Fe last week to my event.  I think she's only been to one in 5 years!  We had great weather Fri/Sat, but sadly got rained out Sunday.  Luckily, I made the decision to tear down Sat. night as we had 50 mile an hour winds that would have leveled my tent and smashed up some of my art.  I hated making that decision and not doing the three days, but I think it was the right one.  Believe it or not it’s draining to converse for 10 hours a day for these shows.  In real life sometimes I don't see other people for weeks - just the hubby and pet clan, so it can be exhausting, but it’s a good exhaustion. 

Thursday my mom and I hit the open road for a little "girls road trip" back to Santa Fe and we will see what trouble we can get into – with money in my wallet …. Anything can happen!

With two trips planned and getting these other works done I’ll be busy.   So, I look forward to a leisurely drive back to Santa Fe and I'm sure I'll find some Arroyo Junkers to share with you when I return.  It's been too long since I posted those.

Have a wonderful week everyone I’ll be catching up later.
