Flea Market Adventures

We went to Galt today to buy some garbage off of strangers.
It was a grand ol' time.

Kyle was amused with what he did with the toys, as you can see in the video...



It was fun. My friend Cheryl was up from Long Beach so I was able to spend some time with her. While rummaging through the "treasures" we were able to see and smell some interesting things. One of the hi-lights for me was a vendor selling street signs. Even some vintage ones, for example, an old brass public pool sign that read, "Whites Only." I couldn't believe it.
We also found some fun street signs.



Kyle found a "scorpion to go on his something." You'll have to ask him about that... :) And Cheryl made friends with an old man when she ran into him. Good times.
And no outing is complete without a treat! Carmel Popcorn anyone?



All in all it was a fun time.

You FINALLY blogged! You made my day--pretty sad, huh. After watching that video, are you sure you aren't my brother instead of my cousin?!? You would think you'd be a product of my dad instead of Uncle Scott. :) I have such fond memories of Galt--ask me about them some time. You should have gotten that sign for Grandma and Grandpa's pool--did you see their email about Obama? Hee hee.
