A couple of weeks ago we got invited to B&K Green Mountain Auctions with Sherry and Prov. We had a great time, and bought a pair of nice nesting end tables and an old wall clock that might turn into something someday, or it might not…
Many of the people in attendance, who were mostly old men, were obviously regulars, and we could see how they end up with barns packed to the rafters with stuff… you could easily fill a pickup for $50 or less. Of course, most of what you bring home that way is junk, but you always hope for that antique whatsit to be worth something someday.
They’re there twice a week… and Lee is glad that we don’t really have a place for me to store stuff.
And PS — if you don’t know the reference in the post title, it’s worth tracking down. I never really got Tom Waits until I heard this song…
