South Florida Renaissance Faire 2011 day 2

Today started at the 5 am wake up call with the Band, 'The Rogues'  something to" hit the floor running". Face in place,coffee in mug and Thermos, boots on and breakfast. Gather up all the items I forgot yesterday including the Half-Moon coat, I should have taken yesterday. Fruit basket and Ice chest in the truck . Dress bags loaded and it is now 6:25, out the door and highway bound. Mr Weather Man is telling me the wonderful news of 70 degrees for the day , cool morning and nice day -made to order!

The Perfect Faire Day and so it has began. The unload and setup went so smooth after the team plan the pack last night, we were set by 8:30.  Booth was quickly set and sweep, with time to breath, and answer text.  The morning burst forward with that Amazing Florida Soft Sunshine, not to hot nor cold,
 It was going to be one of those quiet smooth morning where we can speak to other vendors, laugh with friends,sharing hot coffee and the hopes for the day with your fellows, these days are rare in as such as Faire builds up so does the excitement and the more early patrons we see. Losing those special moments together,until the last days arrive, with the thought of tear down hanging in the back of the brain.                   
 Many of us have a group or family conection we have build over the years of working together. Many of us will not see each other for another year, or two or three shows later in the year. It is a myth that we all travel together, different shows in others states at different times There are Renaissance Fairs every weekend somewhere in this country 
 So our morning gave way to a full booth with questions and lacing task with happy clients. And smiles with attitude. It is one of pleasure in a job well done,watching our clients feeling pretty, it is a powerfully feeling when you can really see "pretty".
