Two weekends after Sonnenberg

Two weeks ago we did a show in Sonnenberg Gardens. While this is usually our favorite show of the year, this year we were in for a rude awakening. Upon arriving we found our usual slot that we have been in for 4 years straight... suddenly NOT ours. Okay. They put us in the very back in a cul-de-sac. Not okay. Then we find this potter who is copying our work, glaze for glaze... right in the same row, almost in the exact same spot WE USED TO BE IN. Hmmm. Not cool. Sales were so bad Saturday that we almost cried. Sunday was better but couldnt make up for a bad Saturday. To that end, here is my visual gut composition of how things looked/felt at Sonnenberg this year.
