TNO not TKO

I was trying to talk myself out of going and would've succeeded if it had not been for Cynthia ... I gave her my word and she was looking forward to TROY NIGHT OUT so we set sail and only got to the space (on the corner, a couple of doors down from the previous spot) a few minutes late (remember the timing fiasco of the first go-round?).

And we're both glad that we went: It started off slow but the weather was lovely and light and the foot-traffic was heavy and agreeable. There was a live band (does two warblers - not the birds - make a "band"?) who sang a bevy of songs from an Irish repretoire for the duration of the show (5-9pm) ... liked them alot but their speakers were quite loud and that impeded my complete enjoyment (the C concurred). Well, to make this as short as possible, a few jewelry pieces were sold (a couple of Cynthia's necklaces, a couple of my bracelet sets and a locket necklace) ... it was only pocket change but our pockets were quite happy (and it didn't hurt or confidence either [-:).

Sorry, didn't get pics of C's, but here's the necklace that was sold:

The bracelet sets that were sold were partially made from beads recycled from glass bottles (btw, you can see a few samples of my weightier recycled glass bracelets in the shop - http://EcoEmporium.etsy.com/ - try to find them among the avalanche of commercial patterns).

The next TNO should be held the last Friday of next month but that's up-in-the-air because our normal spaces are housed in buildings that were recently sold (hopefully, to an art-loving patron ;-D) ... will keep you posted.
