"Brevity rarely contains any meaningful substance. Mostly it is a lot of yada,yada, yada which amounts to nothing.
Real depth insights contain so much more.
Sorry to disagree, but most conveyances on social media do not amount to a hill of…"

I am not Nels , but here goes. Friday 91 and late night rain. Saturday 94, Sunday 98, Hot and humid all weekend long., now for the good news. Sales were the best we have had in a long time and we had a great neighbor in the green thumbed Teri Causey and her delightful husband Lou who had great golf stories about Nels. Would love to do this show again. See More

"Wallace, first, the the biggest thing you can. Next get a decent impact driver, self-tapping screws and a bunch of L brackets, oh and 2x3, 2x2 and 2x4's. Also, ride around in the sucker for a while. There is no center console so be ready to…"

"What show jury are you talking about??? "
Ed Collins commented on Wallace Fuller's blog post Mountain State Art and Craft Festival
"I was there also! Yes, the booths were in Mountain State Craft Fair provided tents and were laid out with 10' of frontage and 20' deep. There was no option to be in any other space. Most exhibitors were unhappy with the layout. All this…"

"And then just say...it's okay, I forgive your oversight. We will only be here for x days and then it's over so no big deal RIGHT? And let them wallow in their weirdness..."
Carol Larsen commented on Wallace Fuller's blog post Mountain State Art and Craft Festival
"Vertical means two things, slope and someone stupidly only giving a "double booth which means 20' of face-out a single access through an end i.e. 10' of face out. I once had an idiot give me a corner booth - WITH no access - an inside…"

"Space was 20' deep x 10' wide as opposed to 20' wide by 20' deep"
Greg Little commented on Wallace Fuller's blog post Mountain State Art and Craft Festival
"I am not sure what you mean by a Vertical space as opposed to a horizontal booth space. Sorry it did not work out for you and caused all that wasted time and money. "

Lu and I did something that we have never done in 50 years of doing Art Fairs. We arrived at Mountain State Art and Craft Festival in Ripley, WV on Thursday to set up for the weekend. When we arrived we found that the booth space assigned to us was totally unacceptable. It was a10' x 20' vertical space in a U shaped tent arrangement facing another tent in the middle of the U shape. There was only one entrance to the tents as one side was closed off by a…

Lu was accepted for the first time in at least 10 years. This is probably the most artist friendly show that we have ever done. Lu was impressed from the moment that she went to check in and came back to tell me about the most helpful woman who checked her in.
We then went to set up our tent and found that we had a fence post in the middle of it, as we were trying to figure out what to do, our block captain came by and asked…
