The weather was beautiful." Was" being the key word. Market hours are 3-6 and there was to be extended hours till 8 for a group to shop.. Well, at about 5 pm it looked a little cloudy, at 530 the wall of water was coming from the west, under the bridge and toward us. It was a huge windy cold rain , no fun to say the least. We were planning to stay till 8 pm but couldn't after that rain came in. We were holding on to the canopy,and the wind would have taken it away, 3 of us were holding on and the wind blew so hard that we thought were going to fly into the air. The canopy was even tethered down as usual. What an experience. We have had rain before on a Market day but nothing like tonight. guess that will teach us to wait out a storm. The forcast was for rain later but it came early.
Even with the rain we did all right at the market,since the weather was nice most of the day.
Looking forward to Saturdays market now.. everything will be nice and dry and all that water on the lot will be gone. I've got lots of inventory ready to go, so Saturday will be fun.
