MORE TRESURES FOR GOLD RUSH

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done and why. Then do it.   Robert Heinlien


  We're gearing up for Gold Rush! We've been hitting some final sales before the big event and the countdown is on! Now we have to make tags, give the treasures one last cleaning, and pack 'em up! We try not to wait until the last minute. It ends up being back-breaking! We are getting OLD but it's always encouraging to see even older sellers at Gold Rush. On either side of where we usually have our booth are couples that are in their 80's and 90's! They make ME feel older than THEY are the way they run around!

So here are a few bigger items we'll be bringing to Gold Rush:


This table will be coming to the sale this year! It has been in my Laundry Room for quite a while now and I have another table I'll be using in there. We're working on downsizing so one has to go. This table was handy because any spills of laundry detergent could be easily wiped off this enamel top table. It was hard to choose which one would go but the other one gets to stay because we bought it as a gift to ourselves  and used it in our last house as a kitchen table. Brings back good memories STILL.


This old Hitchcock Chair is another guy coming with us. The rush seat is in great condition though the wood is a little scratched in some places. I saw a picture of a chair exactly like this in Country Living magazine. I've loved this little guy also but he needs a new home.


This primitive black coffee table will be there! It's the perfect size for a small space but also opens on both sides to add table room when needed.

And more fun stuff to come! I'll also be bringing some items from my Gwen And Alma's shop to sell and you can see those items here. 

I'll be sharing more things that will be there in the next couple of weeks.

And even though this collecting and selling is still a "Hobby" for us, we find other fun things to do as well. We also enjoy spending time at the Lake on our Pontoon with the kids and grandkids. We always have fun with the kids and enjoy the beautiful scenery as well.





             

We also see fun wild life like these migrating white pelicans that make a stop through this Lake on their way through...and some Sea Gulls in the background.

Hope you're having a fun and relaxing summer!

Thanks for stopping by!
