flea market trip

although i have not bee yard sailing with my sister all summer long i recently felt the urge to visit the Nashville flea market which we do a couple of times a year.  my sister, my niece and i had a perfectly lovely day and as usual i took plenty of pictures.

we swiped their floral halos and wore them for a bit.

found some ice colds pbr's which weren't bad but they weren't really good either.  at least they were cold.

then we handed our head dresses to these ladies.  the stiff on the right took hers off nit two minutes later.  stick in the mud.

 

he looks amused doesn't he.  i think he did like my dress though.

it's a good day today, it's a good day today

Anybody who watches tv around here should know that little tune, It's a good day today, from the Goodwill guy on their commercial.  Me and Mary Evelyn were singing it yesterday afternoon while walking around the Nashville Flea Market.  Which is what I wanted to share with you this morning.  It's going to be a good day today in Nashville, weather wise and all, and the Nashville Flea Market is this weekend.  There's not too many yard sales going on yet and this is a good place to get your feet wet with bargains.  We came away with several yesterday!  Almost makes me want to go back today!

Follow your arrow where ever it points.

I love to see all the costume glistening in the sun.

I brought this little scale home with me :)  I didn not pay ten bucks for it though.

I don't know what people do with these but they are everywhere out here!

I am in look for rugs like this.  I don't need expensive ones although I do enjoy them as well.  Gives me something to garage sale for this summer.

I also bought the enamelware refrigerator tray here on the left.  It has rusty holes in the bottom and will be the new home of a couple of herbs in a couple of months!  Yay!

These reminded me of you Jenn.

Have you ever seen such a pile in your life?

Thoughts to live by..... It's a good day today, it's a good day today!  Enjoy it!

weekend adventures: the nashville flea market

before my visit in july, with my mom, dad and sister mary evelyn, to the nashville flea market, i hadn't been in literally years.   it happens on the fourth weekend of every month.  except maybe a couple of months during the winter.  i truly enjoyed myself and also enjoyed what all the vendors had brought.  it's funny that after all these years some of the vendors were in the very same spot they were in the last time i went.  it had the feeling of a giant yard sale with something different at every turn.  some things were over priced, some under.  we all bought a few things... except maybe dad.  if you haven't been in a while i suggest you go.  it's well worth it!

 

 

you didn't think i left one did you?

especially not this one. 

and it has a lid.
