  1. Love reading this 🙂 Haven’t you been to a flea market? I went with some of the family one summer when we were at Grammie and Grampa’s house. I don’t remember all who came, though. I got an old metal pencil sharpener shaped like a grandfather clock.

  2. Thanks, Honey! I aim to make the list reach 100, but it’s been in the 50s so long, I thought I would just post it and add to it as I like. I don’t remember the flea market you mentioned. But I may not have been there, or I just don’t remember. I’m sure I’ll find one someday!
