Flea Market Finds....

Its chilly, wet, and windy here today. Been windy for most of the weekend, and pretty much cloudy for the past week.  In our efforts to start stock piling clothes for the boys, we all took off today to the friendly neighborhood flea market. Quickly our youngest wanted to pick out his own pet fleas....  : )

Lots of folks were coming out of the weather to browse the different vendors, there are lots of colorful folks there. The smell of freshly popped kettle corn hung in the air. samples were being given out, and the youngest wanted a bag.

One of my reasons for going, is I am kicking around starting a "Survival Store. or Military Surplus Store" So Senior said, lets go and see if there is anyone selling these items, if not...then we can buy some stock and rent a booth. 
Upon pulling up we saw the Camoflauged Jeep out front..didn't take long to find someone beat me to the punch....  Oh well!


The fun thing about flea markets, is you can find pretty much ANYTHING...  LIKE :

Cool Biker Stuff
1970s Incense...ick!
This Great Wooden Ammo Box from the Military Surplus Guy

A Pet Tarantula! I think we will name him HARRY!
Wooden Barrels...I really want one!

And its only at a Flea Market, that at the restaurant you can find: Deep Fried Candy Bars, Twinkies, and Oreos...  sorry no pic though...But I swear it was on the menu.
and yes upon leaving our boys did manage to each get a bag of gummy worms, and Kettle Corn....Mom got 2 new back scratchers, and her favortie Sesame Sticks...   :  )
