Good Afternoon

At least that's what it is here in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It's been a good day so far. I just got home from Market on Military. Again, everyone from our writer's group who were there, sold at least one book. One person sold a dozen books. I wish I could say that was me. I sold one book. So, I have two left. I had three to start with today. Next time I will have at least 20 books to sell as my Amazon order is due in tomorrow. I will need to go online and order more books to replace the ones I sold. At least the event is encouraging to all those who had books to offer. One of the vendors I saw there was someone I knew. I couldn't remember her name, but I knew where I knew her from, and that was half the battle since she wasn't going to tell me. I needed to remember. I did. It took a few minutes. She has an unusual name, which in a way made it easier to stretch my brain to remember it. It was a good event. I bought a couple of things from my profits, edible goodies - goat cheese-garlic and chive, and sweet tomato. The samples were delicious. And a bag of Sap Happy Maple Popcorn. She was at the table next to ours. They make maple syrup and products made with maple syrup. Her family taps maple trees and makes maple products. She gave me a sample of the maple corn and I dug in my pocket and bought a bag. It won't last the night. Now, I'm home and ready to get the notifications worked to find out how your day was. How was your day? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. The snow is melting, but it will return on Monday.

Those Markets where people bring their products are interesting. I had a nice Saturday.

@LadyDuck I'm sure it would. Though I thought you had large markets at certain times of the year, especially Christmas.

Yes, they are. It resembled a large garage sale. Some of the vendors had interesting things for sale, those were the ones where they made their own products.

Sounds like a great day, even if the book selling was less than it could have been.

Thank you. I did enjoy myself. I know because I didn't check my watch every five minutes like I did the first time.

My friend and I are planning a trip to Door County. There's a bookstore there that sells local author books.

We are having what is known as Bikers Week so a lot of loud motorcycles rumbling by and loud music drifting in as they go by. Since the main action is not near us it is not too bad. Just when they rumble by the cats jump but they are getting used to it and realize they are not threatening them. The weather could be sunnier and hotter for all of them to make it beach weather but not yet,

I'm glad the market day went well. They always have a lot of things for sale that you don't normally see or have the opportunity to buy.
