2010 - The Last Days of the Season
Our cool, wet September turned into one of the most beautiful Octobers anyone could remember. Temperatures were higher than normal throughout the month, and dry, sunny days abounded. We escaped frost here at the shore of the Great Lake, and, although the autumn colors arrived early and came down quickly, mums blazed in the gardens, and the monastery’s roses soldiered on into November.
Visitors to the area relished the unusual mildness, and the bright days drew many local people to the highways. Jampot remained crowded during its final two weeks of business, with the second Saturday of the month proving its busiest day of all time. The third Saturday again broke records, being the busiest final day ever, a fitting close to the best season of door sales Jampot has ever seen.
Through it all, the easy camaraderie and good spirits of our customers carried us along, and the boisterous atmosphere of the sales room made even the busiest day an energizing joy. None the less, as the counter emptied of bakery on the final day, our satisfaction was more than a little tinged with relief, and we were truly grateful for the coming few days of quietude before jumping into production for the pre-Christmas rush of mail and internet orders.
