I'm talking about 'Yard Sale' good times. Sometimes I am amazed at what people want to get rid of! Of course, sometimes the day starts out a little slow... should we just pack it in?, should we keep going?... Let's just see what the next one is like...SCORE!
The lady at this yardsale was just so taken with Spike in his dog bag, she almost gave me my money back when I paid her for the rug. He has that affect on people. $2 for the rug!
Seems every week I'm finding pink glass and red transfer ware! The back of the plate had a little note saying this belonged to Gramma Roswell Sr. So much for sentimentality!

Some old guy north of town has a yardsale once in a while to get rid of his antiques. We asked for some old frames and he goes out to the barn, brings back 4, then out he goes again, 3 more. I'd love to see the inside of the barn! Tracy and I spent so much at this sale, she had to write a cheque to him!
Couple of postcards, I can't pass on postcards. Who would ever send that red one? And it was sent, look at the back of it! Talk about being depressed and letting everyone know, even the postman?...
Loved the yellow of this tin box but didn't know what it said. Googled it...means shoe polish kit...who knew!?!
A trio of blue bottles with pewter accents on the front. Someday I might just make flavored vinegar or something and these bottle will be perfect. Someday...
This was cool, it has tealites in the back and lites up like a silhouette. It's about 24 inches long and sits in the front window for now.
Another old plate and a few medicine bottles. Oh, and an unusable ladle but it's still a keeper. I decoupaged old magazine ads on the front of some on my bottles, I'll write a post on them later.
How could I not get this sign, I mean, come on!
This is from the old antique guy north of town. When i got it home, I had no where to put it... hmmm... so it sits in the sunroom right now until I have a vision!
A bunny candle lantern I thought was pretty. Brand new with the tag still on it... $2.
Tracy spotted these two black splatterware bowl, heart shaped too!
So I picked up a couple of really old books. The top one is a Sunday school hymnal, the orange one is a dictionary but the bottom one is weird. It's a 'People Home Library' and has chapters on medical care, home recipes, and home stock (horses, cows, sheeps, etc). 
Having a baby at my house, I've got ya covered...
Your horse has kidney ailments while he's at my house, no problem...
Donnie falls off a tower, don't bother with the hospital, I can fix ya up right here!
I now have ALL the answers!
