Trade Center Show

 I packed the Lego display into the truck on Friday afternoon. Max and I took it to the New Baltimore Trade center around five and set it up. It rained all morning Friday, and heavy downpours filled the streets with water, but the rain had ceased by the time we arrived. 

The trade center is an indoor flea market. The building is the size of a supermarket. It has several different private vends inside. They sell everything from dollar store still trinkets to collectibles. It only operates from Thursday to Sunday. There is a lot of room for more vendors. It seems like a close-knit group of sellers. All trying to make some extra money, some of which is under the table. 

The trade center provided me two tables to use for my display. I took some time to even them out, placed a decorative mat on the tables, and built the display. It went well. I only had one mishap and had to rebuild a section of the wall in the front. No one bothered the display while it was there. I was happy about that. I didn't take many pictures. 

It was a small show. Only four Lego vendors showed, and I was the only one displaying, but I didn't expect much. This was their first event. I think it will be bigger if they continue to have more. I ended up buying $100 in Lego. I bought a bunch of bulk pieces and another set with a Dragon.






At one point, an autistic teenage boy came up and started explaining the theme of my layout to his mother. I had not said anything to him beforehand. He got everything correct. The wizards have been stealing dragon eggs and a baby dragon, and the dragon lord came to get it back.
