Estrella Day 3: Setting up!
My first view of Estrella! Cos I got there before merchant check in opened, & then it got put off another half hour or so because the poor merchant coordinator had to rearrange some booths last minute. You could not PAY me to do that job. But we got in soon enough, & then it

this is the Very Best of all possible ideas

some of each
(this was supposed to go up like a month ago & randomly failed, idek) I THOUGHT I’d taken more pics while tucking in the tarp along the side, & here they are.
incidental boy
Of course the boy came along for the test drive! This is as much about him as it is about me. Also getting him out of the house to run off some energy this time of year is ALWAYS a good idea.
