On Saturday, Layla and I headed up to the Nashville Flea Market to check it out.  We had both heard good things about it, so I was anxious to see it for myself.  We did enjoy it a lot and by far, the best things to be found are outside the buildings.

As usual in August, I’m losing my yardsale mo-jo for the year, but did find a couple of sales near my house to check out on Saturday a.m.  I always go through this every year.  In Spring, I’m rarin’ to go and by August, my enthusiasm is waning.  I didn’t find much this week, but [...]

Lordy-mercy, are ya’ll about to die from this heat wave we’ve got going on?  We are sweltering and if this isn’t dog days of summer, I don’t know what is.
No yardsales for me this weekend, but don’t worry, we’ll still have the party!

Once again, it’s hot as it can be right now and going to yardsales have taken a back seat. I did hit 2 or 3 this weekend, but came up empty handed, but really that is quite OK, since I’ve scored on so many occasions.  So, today I’ll share what I’ve done with some of [...]
