Vintage Photographs, Renwal Dollhouse Furniture, Champange Tap,


**********************************

Happy Halloween to you Halloweeners,

Well I was off to theflea market this fine morning, well not real fine it was 30* outside my front door. That's 2* below freezing, sometimes I wonder about me. Anyway I went and braved the cold, got to the market around 6am and it was dark, dark and c-c-cold. Didn't do more than two rounds of the tables and went and hung out in the van until the sun arose. Once it started to get light it felt better so I decided to unload the van, stacked three table full of stuff and some on the ground. By that time the sun came over the trees and it warmed up a bit. Lots of dealers out but light on customers, so I puttered around and organized some stuff for next weeks auction. About 11:30 the customers just evaporated, like poof they were gone. So I squeezed all the unsold treasures back into the truck and headed home. Then it was off to the Post Office to due my part and give them too much money to ship stuff. Sometimes I think they make more than I do on my merchandise.

Started to add some Renwal dollhouse furniture to the shop last night and a bunch of vintage photos, cabinet cards, tintypes etc to the shop. Guess I'll continue this evening adding more.
