~Market Memories~

No wide shots this time.

In my hustle~bustle, hurry~scurry and with more foot traffic than I can possibly recount .. I spaced the wide shots.

Arriving at the crack of 5:15, I was directed to a parking spot in the FAR south forty. How could I be 'late'?!!! I'm learning. Thank goodness for the nice man with the shuttle bus (aka: golf cart) .. a LiFesAVeR! Giddy vendors piled on. We shared coffee & excitement. And well wishes for a good day.

The extra $20 spent to set up the previous day was worth every single cent .. just a few last minute tweaks .. customers began arriving by 6 a.m.

I sooo love those pre~dawn moments. The first Flea of our season .. the excitement was thick. I will admit to feeling 'the rush'. The junkster within was jazzed & ready to roll.

During the few slow moments of the day I wandered with my camera. I'd hoped for a few blog~worthy shots. My offerings this time were a real mix .. something for everyone.

Here you have the not~so~wide shots. In no particular order. Still feeling a little punchy so decided to forego any editing.

Enjoy~

And my personal favorite ~

I connected with every customer. I thoroughly loved hearing how each would use their new~found treasures. Those sweet pink garden chairs will be missed, but I can promise you they went to a very loving home. :)

And another very special Thank You .. to the one who brought me a hot coffee in the middle of the morning, an iced coffee in the middle of the afternoon, helped me load up at day's end. And brought me Thai take~out for supper on the couch. I love my job. But not like I love this man. :)

It was a very busy day .. I did not get to wander or shop the Market at all. I did, however, find a few to~die~for treasures in the boothes of my neighboring vendors. I know, I know .. . let a few go ~ bring a few home .. .

I'll share them with you soon. They'll be staying for a while ~

Hoping yours is a truly treasure~filled week~

Sweet Sage
