Claire and Randall Nathan went to "Most Art For the Most Part" at Depression Community College today. It was named for Arthuro DePresion, but the sign painters spelled it out on the new building just as Depression, and since it's located in a really big gully...
Anyway, they have fabulous artists displaying all over the DPC grounds at MAFTMP, and great music in the big chartreuse tent, because Periwinkle County gives tax breaks to artists, writers, and jugglers. Claire bought a potholder for $14 and a pot to hold in it for a sum that Randall still doesn't know about because he was busy making google eyes at a little redheaded baby with a squinched face.
That's what Randall does at art fairs. He ignores the art and concentrates on the babies. He feels guilty. He knows that the art will last and the babies won't. They will grow up and become disagreeable adults. He ought to enjoy the art, but there's just something about the babies...
