**********************************
Did the market today, lots of dealers but not much to buy. It happens. Cool weather, great for the market, light on the customers but there were some actual buyers wandering around. Sold a few boxes of stuff, made room in the truck so that we can go yard saling in the morning. I know there's something great out there that I need, just gotta find it. Weather looks good for the market on Sunday.
I don't normally deal in books but picked up a few stacks recently because they looked interesting and sorta collectible. Figured I'd expand a little. Got a few added to the shop, more coming.
Moved into a larger storage unit also last week, winter coming and I cut back on the flea markets but merchandise still shows up. Also got tired of stacking stuff 8' high. What you need is always in the back, on the bottom. Like in your attic, first thing in is never seen again.
Added some old clock keys and other items to the shop.
