No pictures, but a few descriptions.
There were lots of flowers, chickens, ducks and rabbits as usual. A man with rabbits and baby goats took our boy cat - so we are accomplished in being less one cat, which was needed. There were so many people buying chickens - we even saw a pair of men chasing one in the parking lot! Mark said he was glad that wasn't him - chasing a loose chicken in between cars.
A man was giving away boxer puppies. Their mama dog wasn't happy at all - she kept growling at all the people who touched them. We found a squooshy green koosh ball for Esme again - her last one (from last years Fish Fry fair in Paris) went flat and then got all icky and thrown away. I saw carburetors on a table that were truly interesting looking. Also a large green ceramic owl cookie jar that I didn't look closely at because I didn't have that much cash on me. It would have been a great buy though! Another man had a 'cop' cookie jar. He told Esme she could have a cookie - but when he opened the top the policeman said 'Stop cookie thief!' and Esme nearly cried. Poor kid! There were tricycles and kiddie cars, but they were all too expensive (more than new). The Amish were selling cookies and jams and jellies at the front gate and the tomatoes and apples and oranges from the Florida truck looked great.
We bought two pans for Esme to play 'cook cook' with. They are just her size. She also found a little plastic ferris wheel that goes round and round. It was supposed to be for a birdcage toy - but this toddler enjoys it quite a bit. We are also plus one rubber turtle from the grocery store. I looked for coffee cups but there weren't any in good condition under antique pries.. need to come another day when there are more vendors or maybe stop by the thrift store.
Now we're home and watching Electric Company. I'm hoping to make the rubber duck pants today while she is occupied watching TV.
