I have to tell you this story now. His daddy had the booth behind us. He called it AL Mart. Well, Al and some of his friends got into a poker game and got drunk and rowdy and landed themselves in jai because that kind of behavior down there is out! One morning when we went down to open our booth, his booth and van was roped off with police tape. We wondered what had happened. He had promised that on Saturday, which was Halloween, he was going to dress up as superman in the complete outfit. Well, since he wasn't able to..... He sent his son in his place. And Yes..... it was quite Wrong!!!! But, we had to laugh!

I had to make my self stay in our booth as much as possible. We did go venturing out though and got some pretty good buys. The month before, my sister spent 1500 on fishing lures alone. (She is a professional fisherwoman)

Take your long handles. It gets cold down there. We had to clean the frost off the windshield 2 mornings just so we could see how to travel from the campsite to the booth. Take a warm coat. We were lucky we had some with us. Whew!
