The Kansas Mercantile had a great weekend at the Yuma Quartermaster Depot Civi War Reenactment. 80 degress and a beautiful gem in the middle of the Arizona desert. I got to set up on the deep wood porch of the Quartermaster building. The storm hit us with very gusty winds right after the last battle. I packed what I could, chasing things the wind blew over, until it turned rainy and dark. Had a great dinner at a local Chinese buffet with Robin Johnson and finished in the morning. I still had to fight the strong headwinds and blowing sand from the dunes all the way home.
