Estrella: Fun in the Sun
As is, alas, usual, I didn’t get a lot of time away from the booth. I did, however, get out a little. I present you with the traditional views from the front of my booth.
To the left in this shot is a booth selling rapiers and crossbows — sold by some kind folk who I got to know well over the week — and next to them, a pottery booth. I traded with the potter for one of her beautiful mugs late in the week, and it’s currently sitting within easy reach on my desk.
In this shot the rapier-and-crossbow booth is now to the right — you can’t see much past the crowd of people in the street, though you may be able to make out one of the surrounding mountain ranges in the background. The sky looked like that nearly the entire week.
Immediately to the left of my booth (in the right of the shot, here) was a small booth selling quite pretty jewelry, run by a kind lady who took Loiosh for a walk one day while I was showering. She was very patient with Mr. I’m Going This Way Now and I am grateful.
This is Angel. Isn’t she pretty, with her bindi on her forehead? She wanted to play with Loiosh VERY BADLY but Loiosh, quite predictably, said NO AND ALSO NO.
I also saw a beautiful Pomeranian wearing a bindi and a gorgeous necklace, but I didn’t get a picture.
And lastly, an old friend of mine and Loiosh’s made him a beautiful bracelet, which he was Very Patient and wore for a good twenty minutes.
You may note that I haven’t supplied a name to any actual humans in this post — I could claim that I’m trying to avoid naming people in public without their permission, but the truth is I’m completely crappy with names, and for all I remember, every human being in every picture could be named Fred. But I like ‘em all, and they’re cool people.
