Flea market shinanigans

We upped and done it! Rich and I have divested ourselves of the majority of our worldly possessions. IT FEELS GOOD! We rented a spot at the Mustang Flea Market in Pinellas, Florida and sold out. No unreasonable offer refused!

I'll admit there was some left when we closed shop this afternoon, but it all went directly to the Goodwill located a couple of blocks away from the flea market. Geographic coincidence? Maybe not.

We arrived in the dark this morning and as soon as we began unloading we were swarmed by strangers with flashlights. I do believe some jewelry disappeared. There are "those" vendors who prey upon new arrivals to buy low and re-sell. Stealing? Well I guess it's irresistable for some. Other vendors were most amiable and helpful. And the buyers? Very heavy and friendly foot traffic today.
