Hog Wild Festival 2015

Hi everyone!  Sorry for the post being a day late, I had computer troubles yesterday.  Electronics always seem to act up when you need them the most!

Any-who.. I had a wonderful day at the Hog Wild Festival this year!  My Mom and I were setting up by about 6:30 that morning.  It was bright and sunny alreay!  We had put the tent up the night before, so all we had to do was actually set up the display.  We finished just a little after 8:00.

It was a beautiful (if very hot) day!
Where our booth was located, we were surrounded by political booths.  Side rant:  I hate political booths.  I personally would rather see them out in the community showing what they can do to help rather than berating everyone in earshot with how they're going to help.  We all know 9 times out of 10 that they never do what they said they would...  Also, the booth to my left was a woman running for office and she thought it was the best idea to come stand in directly in front of my booth (not her own!) to pass out her materials... End of rant.

The booth to my right was an airbrushed t-shirt booth.  That was really pretty neat as I could peep over and watch him work while no one was visiting my booth.  I was also pretty much in the food vendor area, so I was smelling delicious barbecue, corn dogs, and funnel cakes all day long.  I'm not entirely sure how, but my mom and I went all day and only bought a snow cone!

I did fairly well at the festival.  I almost tripled my booth fee despite a threat of thunder storms all day and a few short showers.  I will definitely be going back next year.

Here are pictures of my booth!

Thanks for reading!  Check back Friday for what I've been doing.  (Hint - I've expanded!)
