It was a big Friday at the MREA Fair. It may have even set an attendance record. But it was hot (93 degrees) and humid. We were melting inside the big tent where our booth is located. The first day was loads of fun anyway with the boys trading with other vendors for solar fan hats and other stuff, and me getting to sign lots of “Stupid People” books.

I’ve posted photos of some of the people who came to the show wearing their BHM T-shirts. I didn’t think to take any photos until later in the day. I’ll take photos of everyone who wears a T-shirt Saturday and post them on this weblog.

After the show we went to dinner with Dave and Elaine Belanger of Countryside and Small Stock Journal, then came back to swim and crash at the motel pool. The boys swam, while Lenie crashed (she’s exhausted), and I watched the U.S. Open highlights while uploading this post. Great first day that should get even busier tomorrow. It’s sometime after midnight Central time. I’m pretty tired too.
