THREE CALCULATORS AND A REAM OF PAPER LATER.....

WELL IT'S OFFICIAL, THE HIGHLAND/AMSTERDAM MARKET SALES FAR EXCEED ANY OF THE CURRENT VIRGINIA/HIGHLAND RECEIPTS. I ONLY MENTION THIS TO PREFACE THE FACT THAT I MIS-JUDGED THE LOCATION. BY COMPARISON VA/HI IS MORE OPEN AND AIRY IN MY OPINION. LOTS OF FOOT TRAFFIC. APPARENTLY THAT FOOT TRAFFIC JUST KEPT ON WALKING! THE CROWD WAS SMALLER (AT AMSTERDAM), HOWEVER THERE IS GREAT PARKING OPPORTUNITIES BEHIND THE POST OFFICE AND SHOPS; NOT SO AT THE OTHER LOCATION.
I AM SCHEDULED TO GO BACK NEXT WEEKEND, BUT WITH "SUMMER-FEST" JUST DOWN THE STREET ON VIRGINIA AVE., AND THE CROWDS OF PEOPLE THAT IT BRINGS IN, I MIGHT NOT HAVE ENOUGH INVENTORY. DANG, THAT WOULD BE A BUMMER. OH WELL, I MUST GET OUT BACK OF THE ENCHANTED COTTAGE AND SCARE UP SO MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE PORCH FURNITURE. MY TRUSTY KNAVE, JANICE, HAS BEEN PAINTING HER HEAD OFF, TRYING TO KEEP AHEAD OF THE DEMANDS OF THE SPRING SEASON. I JUST MAY GIVE HER A DAY OFF IN AUGUST.
NOTE: THOSE OF YOU THAT KNOW JANICE, KNOW THAT THE LAST PARAGRAPH WAS TOTAL B.S. ON MY PART.
