Gombo, no sir, I do not.  They are young and single and I am old and wish to remain married.  They have their tubs and I have mine and never shall they intertwine!

We got to the Alley Fest around 2:00 Friday after picking up 8 cases of beer, 2 boxes of Cusano and Arturo Fuente cigars, and some new swimsuits and boonie hats.  We brought a HS Jetsetter, Sovereign Classic, the New Limelight Glow, and the New HotSpot LaPalma w/stereo/cd player:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04979.jpg)

The great guys at the Longview Fire Department filled up our spas as always with their nasty firefightin' water:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04980.jpg)

After getting the electric hooked up, I took pics of the water after 20 minutes.  Of course, the two HotSpring Spas and the Exclusive 100% No-Bypass Filtration were already clear:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04984.jpg)

The two spas equipped with industry standard bypass filtration took a while longer, as was expected:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04985.jpg)

Our next door neighbor Jennifer was excited.  She could be a hydrotherapy technician, but is about to become a grandmother and did not feel that it would be proper:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04989.jpg)

Hannah and her friend Kimber came at 6:00 and we all went over to the VIP Room to eat some good ol' Jalapeno Tree Tex-Mex.  Then, the girls waited the obligatory 30 minutes before entering the water:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04987.jpg)

Kimber tried out the wireless Blose headphones that come standard with the LaPalma's sound system.  They are unique to the industry:

As usual, our tent was THE place to be.  Free beer to our customers and to the military, our company policy.  Several of our customers stopped by including Robert and Kim.  Robert, as you know, is the manager of one of the local Wal-Marts.  He, his brother, his parents, and 3 of his co-workers all have purchased spas from us:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04998.jpg)

Kim's best friend Jennifer stopped by.  We tried to get her a date with Ronnie, but Ronnie's GF showed up and stuck a plug up that butt:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC05000.jpg)

Hannah and Kimber took it easy:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC05009.jpg)

Stephan, the service manager, stole my hat I got in Australia and probably infested it with ignorance, which is only fitting considering he is in a bypass-filtration spa (as is obvious):

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC04997.jpg)

One of my customers showed up on his latest garage project:

Saturday, Theresa came and joined Hannah and Kimber in the spas.  Theresa is Holly's friend and is a self-proclaimed party girl:

(http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b206/EastTexasSpa/DSC05032.jpg)

The lighting in the new Limelight Spas is pretty spectacular:

The water finally cleared up a bit:

That is very interesting information, Chas.  Thank you for sharing it. :)

I haven't really analyzed it from a sales approach.  Actually, when we do the Alley Fest and the Balloon Race, we are not even trying to make sales at the event.  We don't take brochures or any type of literature.  I don't even talk about the spas unless someone just REALLY wants to.  It is more of a celebration of the good things in life and about being active in the community.

I see dozens of my existing customers at these events and every one of them stops by to hang out, some of them for a looonnggg time.  We use this as one more opportunity to establish strong relationships with our customers.  The girls are there to glorify the whole experience, and they do a great job.

Wow.   It looks like they filled your tubs with TEA.  Was it sweet or unsweet?  

I cannot believe the difference between the No Bypass vs the "Industry Standard" bypass.  That is why we use the cabin air filters on our vehicles.  That is simply an incredible visual...
