Fun day. Launched in medium snow and roared to Cowtown. On the property at 6:15. First purchase at 6:16. none of my bud's had a hand cart so later I hadda tell the seller he could keep my $$ and sell it again cause I couldn't lift it. For trains I saw a a rusty Marx bridge for $2 and neato homey built girder bridge for 5 bangers so it followed me home. Will left a Marx engine for me at Frankie's booth.I found a bunch of junk I didn’t need but our pose from Virginia wimped out on me so I didn’t have any adults along to correct me. The guys from Frederick who had the 6 table of rusty junk were there as well. I made 3 heavy passes...I think the Earth’s magnetic pole moved again. I saw homefolks from the South Jersey Model A club who remembered me. Nice to be remembered. I left a coffee on a guys table and found it 2 hours later. Drank it anyway. I did find some neato Eagles memorabilia which will come to roost on some unsuspecting Redskin fan...
On the way home at a rest stop, here come two guys wearing Buffalo Soldiers jackets. We hollered. They remembers my yellow Model A and will be in the Cherry Blossom Parade in Dc in 2 weeks. Several years ago several of the solders rode in our Model A’s. Home in time to watch Kansas take a nap.
Clem, having too much fun
 
I got there around 8; left around 11. The most important purchase was a cute-looking oil can, to serve as a prop for my daughter's school production of "The Wizard of Oz"...
I also found an old aftermarket cast aluminum right-hand taillight bracket.
