Hi there!
Well, yesterday evening, Gilbert did a bit of research
and found a web site that listed some local
garage sales, for Saturday.
Soooooo, this morning we headed out to
do some "Yard Sailing".
Gilbert wasn't lucky, but I managed
to nab a quilting book,
by Carol Doak, even!
*VBG*
It must have been written before the internet....
I couldn't find anything in there that mentioned
web sites and web addresses and such.
But, when I glanced at it briefly,
I realized that it was a PRICELESS BOOK....
for only 2 bucks!!!!!
One of the flea markets, was "Up Town".
Now, we've always called our city center "Up" town....
I was always told it was because our city is so "hilly" -
supposedly comparable to San Francisco and
that the city center (here) is actually UP town.
Anyhow, I digress... once again.... *grin*
On our way to one of the flea markets, UP town,
I passed by a street and caught this site!
Figured that I might as well grab a shot,
for my friend Elaine and her hubby!
