Well, the long awaited weekend is finally here and so far we've had awesome weather! It rained Saturday night and today was absolutely beautiful, a little on the hot side for some, but we'll take it! No snow, no rain! We couldn't ask for anything better!On behalf of all the vendors, I'd like to thank you all for coming to the Market today, whether to shop, browse, visit, have a bite to eat, or see what was new. We all appreciate it so much! And in appreciation, I'd also like to take a minute to thank Dave for all his hard work, although it's not over yet! I don't think any of stop for a minute and realize all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes not just for the vendors, but for the owners, Dave and Ardy, as well as Karen. There seems to be months of preparation, and not all of it fun, that go into grounds keeping, building upkeep, equipment maintenance, getting vendors set up in buildings, telephone service, garbage dumpsters, porta-potties, the list goes on and on. So if you see Dave around, make sure you give him a BIG thanks! And on the porta-potty note, please use the garbage cans for garbage, pop cans, etc. Have you ever stopped to think who has to get that garbage out of there that can't be sucked out by the pumping truck.........yep, that's right.......DAVE!!! So, I want to say, THANKS DAVE!!! Thanks for all you do, and then some!!
Onto the market! The weekend was great! It was great to see all the vendors come back and meet many new vendors. It is really a time to reflect on many great seasons of buying and selling, meeting new friends, and ca
camaraderie. While standing outside my shop today selling, I heard a voice.........no, not a voice from above, but a voice I know. In my head I knew that voice from the past.........yes, it was Diana Dugger!! A long time family and school friend that I haven't seen in years. She shared that this was the first time she had ever been to Shady Hollow!! Well, can you imagine! What an exciting thing, not only to meet great friends, actually someone I consider to be more like a sister, but someone that lived in Detroit Lakes her whole life and had NEVER been to Shady Hollow?!!! See, there is proof!! Some people in DL don't even know it exists!! We need to spread and share the word!!!

Where will all these memories be made and stored?! I hope you had a chance to make and share some of your own memories this weekend! I hope you had a great Memorial Weekend and hope to see you in the upcoming weekends. Remember the two day Saturday/Sunday markets as well!! Let us know if there is something you would like to see at Shady Hollow! Thanks for making it a great place to be!!
