They're nice for providing shade and okay in a drizzle, but that's about it.Jean Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047709505502621618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955548665653773708.post-17849101821861293892019-07-25T05:40:17.289-04:002019-07-25T05:40:17.289-04:00Wow, that sounds really lucky!

So much so this week that it was blowing books off my display this past Tuesday. I had to set them down flat, which makes them far less visible. But outdoor events have the best traffic so they are worth the headaches.Jean Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047709505502621618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955548665653773708.post-82358588112683047292019-07-23T11:39:06.210-04:002019-07-23T11:39:06.210-04:00Hi Jean - just heard about some friends who'd ...Hi Jean - just heard about some friends who'd had a party ... the awnings were up - the torrents came down, most were inside due to the cooling off - two were still nattering under the awning - next thing .... one sodden couple of peeps.

Even when it rains, it usually comes down vertically. We have a picnic shelter, looks a lot like the first picture, and we've never even had to peg it down. But I've noticed a change in the past couple of years, a lot more wind meaning we can no longer take that calm for granted.<br /><br />Good tips on the outdoor book selling though. There clearly speaks the voice of experience! I hope the events were worth it.Botanisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12098709722475364465noreply@blogger.com
