We will be heading out at 6:00 a.m. Saturday morning to drive to our Flea Market location. (Tell me again why we do this?) It is our first outdoor show and for the last couple of weeks we have been getting ready. We bought a tent and have been diligently practicing setting up so we will look like we know what we are doing. When we bought the tent a nice young man helped us decide on what we needed. It is an easy up tent that he assured us anyone can operate. I asked him, "Even two old fat ladies?" He wasn't exactly sure how to answer. He was trying to be very diplomatic but after a short pause he said, "I'm sure you will have no trouble at all." Give that boy a gold star. We have a huge pile of items in a staging area ready to be packed inside the Jeep. Linda is the master packer and somehow always gets everything in. I take care of the creative side. If I had to fiddle around with the packing I would fling half of our merchandise out into the middle of the street and go inside for a cup of coffee. That is why we work so well together. We each have our own
unique strengths. How do you like our sign ? I painted the bottom of a #3 washtub and then put our name on it. I thought it might be eye-catching and the weight will help hold the tent down as well.This is our official Junk Camp Counselor. She will be on hand to answer any junk questions and possibly lure prospecting customers into our area with her curvaceous style. The poor thing has to endure standing on a copper rod all day. Oh the indignity of it all. We will be located in Shoshone, Idaho on scenic Highway 74. It is the gate way to beautiful Sun Valley and the home to The Whistle Stop Antique mall. Look for our tent on the Courthouse lawn from 9:00 to 4:00. Stop by and see us and be sure to get your supply of Penny's Big Ass Cookies. We will have a good assortment of excellent junk . I hope to see you there.
