Who said you can’t go back home? I went to a 6 hour artisan show in my little farmer community where I grew up this past Saturday. With the farmers taking it on the chin this year, and a population of around 400 residents, I had very low expectations. I do have a bit of a reputation in town after building the altar for the Lutheran Church when they remolded 2 decades ago, which must have helped. I averaged $170 an hour in sales.
