South Florida Scottish Festival

Well we didn't do too well at the South Florida Scottish Festival and Highland Games. Not because of our products, they actually sold well considering no one came to the event. You see, here's the situation. Down here in sunny S. FL, the one day of our festival took place looked like this...

Felt like this...

At one point, I thought I had developed this (it was a false alarm)...



Which all led to this...

Floridians don't really own warm clothes. In fact, last year was the first time I owned a jacket since grade school. So when you pair steady rain with temps in the 30's with a wind chill leading to temps feeling like they are in the 20's, you will only get the most die hard of Scottish festival fans - not many. We did have some fun, met some great people, and walked away with enough money to cover our vendor and advertising fees. I will chock that up as a success considering when I showed up, I thought there was no way I could sell anything.
