If it was Wednesday, it was Leesport

We were on the road at 5:30am to head for our favorite flea market in Leesport, PA.  That may sound a bit early but it is quite a drive AND you need to get there fairly early.  Many are able to get there a lot earlier. BUT, I refuse to get up any earlier!

It was a beautiful weather day so there were many more dealers than usual AND lots more attendees as well.  So the  day was right and we found lots of goodies.  Also saw a few things to take pictures of for you.
                               One of the dealers I always visit likes to set up with themes on her tables.
                                              This time she had a section of Violet items

and another of jewelry for the 4th of July.  Those pins remind me of fireworks!

 This next lady always has fun things for the primitive style house, a lot of times she makes them from recycled items.  I will admit she gives me good ideas! This may be a manufactured lamp, I don't know.  I just like it.

  I found another great thing for my rust garden!!  It is a very rusty little windmill.  I couldn't believe my luck.  It actually moves in the wind too.  And it was really cheap which is even better!

And while I was taking pictures in my yard today I am adding one of my bird house neighborhood.  I keep finding new ones and just can't seem to stop buying them.  This isn't all either.  I have quite a few hanging here and there.

I didn't take as many pictures as I had planned to take because I didn't take my regular camera.  These were with my phone.  It doesn't do as well.    But you can get the idea of the kind of things I look for.

No tea cups this week either.  I was very disappointed!  Maybe I will find a couple from my shop to show you on the next Teacup Tuesday.

Getting to know his surroundings

Gerome wanted to get acquainted with his surrounding during his visit and so he headed outside. His first stop was to see about that strange looking pink bird sitting among some of my Hostas. He indicated he thought they were mostly in Fla. not up in PA. But I told him this pink bird actually found his way into my garden when we lived in Maine.. and then we brought him with us here...... So yes, a strange bird.


Next he spotted the birdhouse sitting on the bench by my garden shed. I had to tell him the story about how the chickadees lived in it last summer but didn't come back this year. He looked like he was thinking about moving in but changed his mind.

And finally on his first visit to my yard he tried to get into the screen door that decorates the side of my garden shed. I guess he didn't realize it wasn't really a door and wouldn't help in get inside.

So wonder what he will do tomorrow.
