Botanical show day 1
Oct. 11th, 2014 07:43 pmThe first day of our performance at the Bershire Botanical Garden is done.
We got up at 5AM to get here in time. The weather report had said "mostly cloudy with 4% chance of rain." So, it rained the first three hours we were here.
But, the sun did eventually come out and it was nice.
Lots of audience. The pony ride guy says it is normally 10,000 people. I didn't see that many, but probably a couple of thousand.
They seemed to really like our shows. The problem is, we only had two shows and had folks stopping by to ask what we did constantly. So, we very often got up and did something. That made for a busy day.
As it is more than two hours, we didn't drive home and got a hotel. It is only one exit down the highway. But, one exit is 50 miles/50km. So, we're still a ways away.
Hope tomorrow is as sunny as predicted and all goes well...

I don't immediately remember a crowd that size waiting for our 2nd show like that for a while.
(I'm probably wrong but might also be from -my- perspective)
