Big Cajones

Yesterday was an investment in the Flower Shop. We spent the day at the first-ever Best Bridal Faire in Santa Maria, sponsored by the Santa Maria Times.

For a small shop 20 miles south, it was not necessarily going to be a great day though we did talk with multiple couples who had come up from Lompoc and those connections may turn out to have been worth the effort. For the most part though, it was not a banner day.

We did alot of people watching...the young Hispanic girl trying on dresses in anticipation of her Quincineria...the creepy guy in his late 40's with his fiancee in her early 20's and everything in-between.

But the most audacious display of the day came from the only other Flower shop at the Faire, who early on in the day sent a youngish 20-something year old employ over to our booth to inquire about pricing and minimums.
