Allyson, and I... made it to Gold Rush... Thursday afternoon, in good time.
Arrived around 2ish...
didn't need to be there early, we had a smaller load, and... we could set up until 8 p.m.
So.... we took our time, grabbed a Great Lunch... Coffee... and Bakery, in Spring Valley, MN., we did a little Junkin', stopped at a few garage sales... hit a couple Antique Shops, in Stewartville, MN.,
then...
headed for The Fairgrounds, in Rochester, MN.
: )
Pal, Dale... was helping Friend, Jo... unload her van, with my load, waiting on his Sprinter at the door to our booth.
It was Quite the Surprise... when I found we could only work in the building 'til 6, not 8.
oh dear.
There's been many changes at Gold Rush... this May.
Wasn't quite up to speed with them all.
Pal, Wanda... and Hubby, Terry... brought a Load of Garden, for the booth, they were kind to deliver... and help set.
<3
With so many changes, many Folk's aren't in their usual booths.
Gads!!
Had to Run... to find Pal, Laurie Perkins!! I Always find Great Treasures with Her!!!
Allyson, and I Ran... through the buildings, didn't find Laurie... at first, but...
ran across some other Folk's who had Cool Old Garden, and a Wonderful...
Old...
Toy
Truck.
<3
Bought a Load... from Them!!
Allyson, and I had our hands and arms Full... by the time we found Laurie.
oh my.
No worries.
We got Everything back to The Booth.
; )
Loved the little not that was on the old Toy Truck.
<3
Allyson, by the old... Truck.
<3
It found a new Home... yesterday.
<3
We had a Very... Good... Friday Morning!! Load's of Folks Through!!
; )
Didn't get many images... as I play music through my phone... to the little Bose.
Have to Have... Music!!
; )
Took the below images at the end of the day, yesterday.
Much... had changed by then.
I'm still... unpacking, and picking away at the booth.
{Normal : ) }
Went running several times, yesterday... trying to find Risers, and chairs/stools... for us to sit on, when we could.
This Load... was an Absolute...
Cluster Fudge.
: (
Used to loading The Ford, and FUSO.
Dale's Sprinter, tho... Incredibly Grateful...
for Dale, and his Ford Sprinter,
just...
couldn't handle... what I needed it too, to pull a
'Simply Iowa'
Booth together.
Several things got broken, in transit.
That's... always so heartbreaking.
: (
We'll be back at it... at 8, this morning.
Long Days.
Enjoyed Supper, with Wanda, and Terry...
{Gatherings }
Thursday Eve,
enjoyed...
Supper, last night, with Pal, Cindy B.
{Lady Bug Antiques}
Allyson had packed Great Treats for us... which is Awesome!!
Saves us from running to get food.
; )
Above is the Great Coffee Shop/Bakery... that adjoins a Bar and Grill,
in Spring Valley, we had lunch at.
It... was The Bomb!!
; )
Gotta Fly!!
Jump in the shower, try to loosen up my muscles.
Gads...
Concrete floors, and me... don't get along.
Never have.
; )
Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.
