Flea Market Finds



Last Saturday afternoon (one week and 4 days ago) found Anthony and I at the fairgrounds flea market. Treasures were in abundance. Fair-style snacks, too.

I found plenty of treats to bring home, Anthony carefully decided upon just one thing:


Here's what we saw:

The man selling it was in the process of packing up as we walked by. Sitting in a slightly crumpled cardboard box was this amazing set - complete, too! Apparently I was too busy examining everything to be paying attention, but Anthony said that the seller kept repeating: "it's little, you know, like for kids...", not really understanding why anyone would want an old worn childrens croquet set. Oh, little does he know...
