In boating it's important to watch and wait for weather windows. You can't plan a passage based on the calendar. It's more complicated than that, at least if you're smart.
You have to wait until all the right conditions converge that will allow a safe passage.
Unfortunately, when you plan a beer festival you have to base it on the calendar and hope against hope a weather window will open up around you.
The weather forecast for the week is clear except for pouring rain on the day of our beer festival.
There's a window there, but we can't see out for the rain.
Last year, it didn't rain from the end of July until October 27th, the day we had our first beer festival.
Let's review: the first year it rained. The second year it's supposed to rain. We're beginning to wonder if somebody's sending us a message here. Have a rain festival? Include mud wrestling as a stage event? Hire ducks as parking attendants?
But maybe, just maybe that little rain cloud will move on to another day.
In the meantime, we wait.
Is it just me, or do we seem to be doing a lot of waiting lately?
TODAY:
--checked the weather about 15 times
--got a bid on another big tent
