    I don't think I've mentioned this here. I got myself into putting on an event at a really cool biker bar here. It's a swap meet, bike show and bikini bike wash. If I could have done it in September, I would have had a decent amount of time to put it on, but the bar owner wanted it in August. I have been busting my butt. It looks like it's going to be awesome though. I'm barely making anything on it this year, but we're planning on doing it monthly next year. It should be easier, and the vendors should be knocking down my door.

    Praying it's a killer party tomorrow.

    Really cool trophies for the bike show made by one of the vendors

    It was good. There are a couple of changes I'd make with the vendors for next year, but that's about it. I don't think the owner of the venue expected so many people. There weren't enough servers working. Then all of a sudden he wants me to do something in September. I have to get down there and talk to him. I made very little money for the amount of work I put in, and he made a ton of money for very little effort. If he wants something again so soon, he'll have to pay for everything, including my time, this time.
