**Tornado-Like Storm** At Sunday's ELKH0RN FLEA MARKET in WISCONSIN


~*It was the second band of "Dark-Clouds*~
that did the fairgrounds in - around noon...
Jeff & I Hunkered Down In-my-Van among what little merchandise we were able to toss in...

It was surreal seeing merchandise flying in-the-air & smashing against the adjacent buildings...  Our 2 WELL-ANCHORED Tents took flight...



Video from the van AFTER the worst of the storm was over...



 Thankful we were SAFE! ~  But we're still shaken up!!!
Our "2" very well anchored tents landed about 3 booths down the isle...  



The wind force was sooooo strong that the bungie cords securing the tents together BROKE!!!

Other reports coming in  - some people had cuts from flying debris, power lines down by our booth, tree limbs down, ambulance sighting, - even HEAVY FURNITURE was flipped over.


AFTER THE WIND SUBSIDED WE STILL HAD TO PACK UP IN THE RAIN...  PACKING UP EVERYTHING WET & BROKEN, ALONG WITH THE DRIVE HOME *WAS MISERABLE*...


Check Back for Before Pics after we dig our selves out of the WET, MUDDY, BROKEN Clean-Up!!!
I am Soooooo Done with OUTDOOR MARKETS!!!!

Isabel's Re-Purposed Garden Containers...


Isabel's Garden
 ~ Re-Purposed This & That ~

Every year my friend Isabel has a "Garden Sale" at their home in Thiensville, Wisconsin... 
Although most of the pics you'll see here are from her 
"Personal Keeper Finds"
I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET A FAB EYE-CANDY
TOUR OF THIS YEARS GARDEN DISPLAYS...



 Each item in her garden "HAS A STORY"...
Some things are authentically old...
Some old things are re-painted...
Others are waiting to acquire a time-worn patina...




 ViNtaGe Vaughan's Seeder
Re-PurPoSed Planter
I remember as a child,  my Dad would take me to this
 Garden Center in Chicago Suburbs!!!  
LAST YEAR I sold a rake from my personal stash, with Vaughan's Name on it...


 Isabel Re-Purposes so many Containers!!!



 This Old HeadBoard has acquired a FaB Rusty PaTiNa!



~**I - SPIED**~ This FaB Old Time~Worn Typewriter
tucked under a table at Isabel's Sale Yesterday...
Although it was one of those dreaded  **NFS** Items, (Not For Sale) -
Isabel was kind enough to sell it to me!!!
I immediately stopped at the Garden Center on my way home,
adding these fab succulents & butterflies...
