turquoise AND numbers .... hold me back !

 

 

button button who's got the button ?

 

  

country store stuff

and always windows !!

 

  

 

you do have to get up pretty early to get the good stuff...

that my friends is the moon still up...

 

 just look at the wear on the leather straps of these bells...

i'd say they've been around the block a time or two

i think that what i love about a flea most is the mix of things..

totally mid century modern chairs next to an ancient record player

i cant possible show you how large the flea is in hartville

for the holiday they have what they call an extravaganza 

there were about 1200 vendors
