God, I have been doing this market, fair thing for a long time and people always say the funniest things to us. This one may top all of them.
A friend of mine was at an art fair last weekend, his neighbor was a wildlife photographer. He had pictures of deer and bear and elk etc...This woman came up to him and asked, "At what elevation do deer become elk?" He couldn't quite believe what she had said and wished he had been quick enough to reply, " At the same elevation duck become geese."
I have had quite a few laughs out of that since I heard it on Wednesday. I've started to keep a journal of all the weird and funny things people say to us. A few weeks ago, my neighbor at the market was a potter and she is from Australia. She has an Australian accent and it's pretty obvious. Anyway, this woman came up to her and asked, " Are you from Canada?" I laughed so hard.. it's just really funny, no she's not from
Canada, dumbass.
On those boring or frustrating days at the market, I can always get a laugh out of what people ask and say..
