Things are starting to clutter in preparation for Saturday. It’s time we remember that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. This comforts me
The artist Amy G, Hall wasn’t afraid of that big empty square last year. She just sat down and begin to work. She just focused on her goal and went one step of a time. 
And it didn’t matter if Cert just let me know that they were doing a ‘stop the bleed” training in city hall Saturday morning and needed the parking lot even though we signed up six months ago or five people just wrote to ask for a space even though they hadn’t registered for the festival.
She just stayed focused and did her job creating beauty out of empty space.
Amy is ready to do it all again. She is excited for the chance to create something from nothing. Here I am stressing about parking spaces and booth size but she is just quietly practicing her shading.
And in the end she has this to show for it all.
It all starts again Friday morning. I can’t wait.
