All is quiet out on the festival grounds. I like to walk around this time of night. There is a sense of peace. I just made my walk and there was just a few folks still in their booths cleaning up. As I was walking I wondered would this be my last festival? Would I have the strength to do this again--I have made some wonderful friendships with my vendors. Each one is special to me in a different way. Some have been with me for 20 plus years. But then I think to myself, I am strong and I will be back and I will continue to direct the festival at least till I am 99. They will have to buy me a motorized chair and I can point directions with my cane. Can't you see me and Linda having races up and down hamburger alley (that's what we call the area where all the food is) we could take bets on who wins!!!
I had a few people come up to me tonight to tell me that they were keeping me in their prayers and I will be fine and I will beat this. That makes me tear up but it's nice to know that folks care.
Today was an easy day. I was informed last night that my hurricane problem has been removed. I was so relieved I won't have to put up with that anymore. Maybe putting on the festival will be easier from now on.
Sandra called last night and she wasn't feeling well. She went to the doctor today and she might have to have her gallbladder taken out. That's just one more thing for me to worry about. She is of me and she too is strong and we don't have time to be sick.
Well, I'm getting tired and I'm headed home. Tomorrow will be an all day event. Make sure you come and enjoy the festival with your family.
