Coming off back-to-back Craft Fairs in St. John's and Corner Brook. Both events were really good for us - we met people, garnered some new subs, and got to show off the Jean-Claude Roy painting from coast to coast. But the experience is also a bit surreal. Spending six, eight, even twelve hours a day in a big arena filled with sparkly lights, dangling stars and slightly echo-y Christmas tunes starts to feel like a stint on a space station, only HAL keeps singing "I'll be home for Christmas..." instead of "Daisy, Daisy..." It's intense I tell you.
