Dustbowl. This is post is long overdue but for the longest time i couldn't find the cord to upload this pics but it is found so here we are.
The whole day was absolutely amazing - from waking up at 5:30 in the morning to chasing down cars half asleep that were moving street barricades. Thank you to everyone who helped, who gave their time in setting-up, playing music, selling beautiful things and tearing-down.
Dustbowl was truly an experience I will never forget. I learned a lot. Like sleep more than 11 hours in a 72 hour time period, this will allow you to enjoy life more. Cherish your friends and family, they were instrumental in making Dustbowl a reality. Work hard, the pay off is worth it. Don't stress (too much), it will work out in the end.
The entire day was full of wonderful people browsing booths, making purchases, looking at art, meeting new people, listening to music and having fun. yay. can't wait until the next one!
Margaret & Angela - makers of beautiful things. mini paintings, children's alphabet blocks, amazing prints...
