**********************************
Not a lot going on, weather can't quite make up it's mind, nice one day sorta wintery the next. Bought a load of flea market type stuff the other day and now they're calling for rain on Friday, but Sunday looks good. Have half of the load in the truck for Sunday and I guess the other half will have to wait until the weekend after the auction. Could push it in the auction next week but being the day before Easter I figure the auction will be an early one. Plus I bought it sorta blind and there is about 15 boxes of stuff still to pick up.
Have my last auction until September on April 11th, am I ready, not at all. But merch will come in and merch will go out. Over the May - August season it doesn't pay to have auctions around here, too much going on with yard sales, town wide sales, flea markets and people doing the yard thing, the beach scene etc. Both consignors and buyers are busy with spring /summer life.
Anyway another bunch of goodies added to the shop including some Mickeys.
