Mom's Weekend at OSU was GREAT!

On May 2nd I had a one day show at OSU, Oregon State University and it was an Awesome day! The night before the show I was staying with my parents in Corvallis, where the show was held, and it had been a great day. As the night approached the weather turned bad and it started to rain like none other. My mom and I looked at each other and said, It's Oregon, what do you expect?"

In the morning, the rain had let up and we dashed to the show to set up our tent. As we were getting everything out, the rain started again. Everyone was still setting up and so we did as well. As the opening of the show was approaching, the clouds parted and the weather cleared for about three hours. The amount of people who attended the craft fair was super. At about 1:30 the rain started and then at about 2:30 the wind came. My tent had weights, but I still had to hold it down. People were still buying craft items. By the time the show ended the wind kind of slowed and the rain stopped. We took down our tent and put everything away and again the rain came. As we were eating dinner we all looked at each other and were thankful that the show was only one day.

Even though the weather was not cooperative, the show was a great success!!
