Gone Thriftin', Again




Or maybe I should say, "Gone Rummaging."  Today is the semi-annual giant Visiting Nurse's Rummage Sale.  I'll be looking for the usual -- milk glass, tole trays, framed prints and pressed flowers.  I'll also be looking for old tins and anything with a fox hunting theme for my friend, Robin.  And, I've been thinking I'd like to start collecting some copper for the kitchen...

Anyway, I'll be slogging through the rain this morning to get first dibs on the best deals.  Hopefully, I'll have something to show you next week.  :) 

 Have a great weekend, dear bloggers!

  2. Enjoy your day and good luck in your search. Maybe you won't have much competition for the good deals since it is raining!

  3. Ack! Rain on the opening day of the VNA sale! What a shame -- but of course hardy souls with collapsible umbrellas might make some sweet scores today. I can't make it today; I will just live vicariously through you. Good hunting! --Cass

  18. We had sloggy weather too... so I took a long afternoon nap and took advantage of the sound of rain on the roof.

    Great photo today and hope you had fun.
