A woman just came into the store and told me she was just browsing and that she and her husband had evacuated from Houston because of Hurricane Ike. They are staying at the hotel behind the shop. I got to talk to her and find out that they had sought refuge in Fredericksburg just last week because of Gustav. She seemed a bit shaken up
She had no intention of buying anything, just killing time and then she found a special little plaque. It said "STORMS always lose out to the SUN." She told me that she would put that up in their hotel room. I thought that was so sweet.
*EDIT* she came back and bought two more for people she met at the hotel!

I went to Harts n Crafts yesterday too! But a girl named Sarah was working but not you. Sad day. I did secure a birthday present for my friend, though, which was the ultimate goal of my trip.
It was a bag. Do you make bags? When I got home Rachael asked me if it was one of your bags and I don't know. It's yellow and blue with a purple interior and a square pocket on the outside . .
aw. that's a sweet story. and i'm glad noelle's bag found a happy home too! tee he.
