Polly at the Bead Show

Polly spent the next week helping out at the Renaissance Bead Show in Denver.  She very kindly held a mirror for customers to view their potential purchases.

A security guard was stationed at a door straight across from where Polly sat slowly surveying the show, trying to spot would-be shoplifters.  She could feel someone staring at her.  Her annoyance grew when she realized it was Polly and her unblinking stare.  She finally got angry and decided to confront Polly for being so rude. 

When she'd had enough she stormed over to the booth but when she got close enough to see clearly she started, she screamed "She scared the hell out of me!"

Unfortunately Polly's presence proved to be of interest but acted as a sale deterrent so she was fired and moved to the back area of the booth where she could be appreciated without being perceived as threatening. 

Being moved turned out to be good for her social life.  Stan the Raku man, a vendor in the next booth fell in love with Polly and even gave her a gift of a raku piece he had made. 

We had a great time and headed home making friends all along the highway.
