Garage Sale Super Models…

Today was Garage Sale Day in Ottawa, Kansas.  Usually we find some great stuff.  Today there were WHOLE STREETS without a single sale… What's this world coming too? (I did find a few things that I'll blog about later)  So what's an eBay Queen and her minion to do?  Pretend  the minion are super models..

#3 and #3.5

I wonder if she planned her outfit because she knew we would find some red suitcases?

#3.5

 

3.5 is singing  "Chicago" right about now..

 

See you later ladies!

You May Live on a Gravel Road If..

wish my wife were this dirty

"Wish My Wife Was THIS DIRTY"

Do you know how to tell someone lives on a gravel road and has a sense of humor? 

I was driving down Main Street in Ottawa, Kansas today and saw this vehicle… If you know me, you might think that it's my car because it is the same color…

BUT it's not.

I promise.

Saturday Auction…

This morning The Man and I went to an auction.. It had a car that he thought he might want to buy. They had a few things there I thought might be interesting… but mostly we were there for the car. See that guy facing the camera leaning against the tree? He was there to watch over the jewelry.

Here's The Man.. checking out the car.

Here's some of the jewelry… Some of these necklaces sold for $80-90 dollars each. I'm sure some were worth that.. but these were DEALERS that were paying that…

More jewelry… some of the pins sold for $40+ each!

even more jewelry

Hey guess what… More jewelry

A partial overview of the jewelry.

They had other stuff there besides jewelry and a car…

I took a photo of this chair… not knowing it would be mine for $12.50!

Interesting stuff…

This was a box of vintage sunglasses and eyeglasses. I bought it for $3.00 🙂

I wanted these 2 boxes of flower pins and flower hair bobs… but they went for $25.00. I probably should have gone higher…

I did buy this 1940's print for myself..

Did I tell you that in the middle of the auction a rain storm broke out?

That green cordial set.. only sold for $25.00

This auction had several pieces of artwork.. there was an original Grandma Layton (sold for 1200), and 3 original William H Howe's (Sold for 475, 350, and 300.

Here's some of the stuff I bought…

My kids won't stop playing with that dang roulette wheel!
