Hi Ruth,

-> It's a definate improvement but you just have to figure out how to get
-> the water out of the parking lot now.

 RH> Move the stream in back of it, more or less, or build the retaining
 RH> wall the town won't let us build.

Will they let you re-route the stream?

-> Does the town's web site keeper keep up with the site? I didn't go to
-> the market today, gone all day to Raleigh yesterday so spent the morning
-> catching up on "Friday" work. Steve went, but didn't get anything as our
-> fridge is full enough. Need to have fresh stuff eaten down before we
-> take off next month.

 RH> Got it - it doesn't start until July.  I take it Steve just needed to
 RH> move around a bit.  I spent Saturday morning doing that too, but at
 RH> assorted tag sales.

Only a couple more weeks then until your market starts. Steve needs to
walk for exercise but he also helps out at the American Legion/VFW tent.
Before his back surgery he helped set up/tear down the market but that's
out for a while longer.

->  RH> I can't be bothered with those either.  I love American Pickers and
->  RH> Flea Market Flip, but both of those deal with what I do.  The Toy
 RH> ->
-> I've seen them once or twice, not really show's I can get into. I think
-> my dad likes them.

 RH> You have to like junk for the former and flea markets for the latter.
 RH> The second also involves a lot of creative repurposing.  It appeals to
 RH> Depression Baby in me.

I look, if I can't use it or come up with a good repurpose, it stays on
the table. Also has to fit our price range.


->  RH> Hunter is great too. It's about a serious toy geek who makes his
->  living buying and selling kid's toys.
 RH> ->
-> Again, something that might catch my attention for a show or two but not
-> a season's worth.

 RH> It's interesting.  I'm not into 70s and 80s toys either, but it's a
 RH> good way
 RH> for me to pick up on what's hot and what isn't.

Again, more in the line of your money making.


->  RH> Not unless you wear about a size 6 and look good in orange. (G)

-> One of the criteria fits; the other doesn't. (G)

 RH> No orange, eh?  Me neither.(LOL)

No, actually I do look good in organge.

-> OK, I bought the AAFES brand panty hose usually when Steve was active
-> duty. Would have bought L'eggs had the price been right. Anyway, we buy
-> new eggs every year because the egg hunt is done as a community outeach
-> event so most of them go home with unchurched youngsters. We spend one
-> Life Group meeting time stuffing the eggs (and quality control checking
-> what they're stuffed with).

 RH> I hope you buy them the way I prefer to - 90% off after Easter sales.
 RH> Target does that, and plastic eggs are often one of the big leftovers.
 RH> It's  the perfect time to stock up.  CVS only goes to 75%
 sometimes.

One of the pastors buys them so I'm not sure when they're bought. I
generally try to get our candy contribution with a coupon tho. The
fliers have quite a few coupons for name brand candy in the weeks
leading up to both Easter & Halloween.

Catch you later,
