Second Set of fieldnotes

My second set of fieldnotes were somewhat disappointing. I visited Sullies on October 23rd, which was a Wednesday afternoon. I visited around 5:30 pm because I thought that would be a good time to go since many people eat dinner around then. I was wrong. Sullies was almost completely dead. Although there was almost a steady stream of people coming in and out, this is unusual for Sullies, or so I thought. My past experiences with Sullies has been a line going out the door or at least the tables outside filled. Maybe it was not as crowded because it was chilly out? However, even with the option of eating in your car, there still was not the usual large amount of people there. Also, the people that i did observe where somewhat contradictory to my first set of fieldnotes. When i last visited Sullies, the Sunday of Columbus Day weekend i observed many families. I observed little kids with their parents, grandparents, or both. The families were spending time together and the kids were playing freely. on Wednesday, this was not the case. I only saw a few kids. I only saw one little boy on his bike and the rest appeared to be coming form school. The costumers of Sullies this day appeared to be mostly adults coming home from work. I suppose the cliental of Sullies depends on the day of the week, These discrepancies are kind of alarming to me. In my mind, when i picture Sullies i picture my first set of fieldnotes. I never really thought that this might not always be the case. I plan on visiting Sullies again this weekend to observe some more so I can compose the most accurate picture. Although my second set of fieldnotes did not go desirable, it was eyeopening and exposed me to a new layer of Sullies.
