What a wind storm we had yesterday! I was at Eastlake High School for the holiday bazaar and within the first hour or so the power blew out. We had only emergency lights and peeping fire alarms to navigate the long hallways. And it was pitch dark in the restrooms - just feeling along the walls for the stalls and the toilet paper :)
We stayed open the entire day, and still got customers, but not quite the happy, festive show it usually is. No loudspeakers for the music groups who were playing, no microphone for the raffle, no internet for many vendors to take credit cards. Luckily I was under a light fixture and a skylight area, so my space was still bright and workable. But it certainly started to get cold as the day went on.
At least the rain stopped, so we didn't have to load out in some pouring rain. Wind is easier to haul in. But it felt like a long day. So glad to get an extra hour of sleep today.
