Here are some pics from week two! So far so good. We are enjoying it, Andrew seems to be enjoying it. Emma will ask before she goes to bed if tomorrow is the Banana Stand, and when Friday finally rolls around, we tell her yes, tomorrow is the Banana Stand.
Just got set up, now where are the customers?
So this girl kept coming by our stand asking questions about the Banana Stand. Andrew did a great job, and it just made me laugh watching him answer her questions. It turns out she is the daughter of one of the other Vendors there in the park and we ended up trading a chocolate banana for a couple of shrimp rolls, a spring roll and a bag of chips. It was great to see Andrew work on his social skills, but the only number he got that day was from his Aunt Georgiana.
Allie, you media glutton! (watching Bolt on the iPod) (But we have to find ways to contain her)
So around 1:00 clouds start rolling in, I kept taking looks, but nothing looked threatening. But then around 1:30, we start thinking we might as well close up shop and avoid any disaster, I take a look at the clouds, and clearly we have a somewhat strong storm to mild microburst heading our way! Andrew and I take off running, we pull the van in, start packing up everything as fast as we can. Yet everyone else seemed to be going about normal business. Until the huge crack of thunder and huge gusts of wind came, and the place broke out in pandamonium.
IT.... WAS..... AWESOME!
Branches were flying, people were running all over the place trying to protect thier goods, canopys were snapping like toothpicks! Good times.
Here are just a couple of the goods.
