Day 193 Barnstormer

10th February 2018

We headed to Lake Odessa for a barn sale about one hour away.

The snow had been falling again, and by the time we got there the sale was in full swing.

We didn’t know what to expect, generally they fall into two categories, some are overpriced tat, others hide little gems. This fell in between, but Kelli knew the person who was running it so there was a supportive nature to the visit.

We were looking for galvanised buckets or tubs for our commissioned piece, surprisingly there were some that were a bit more than we were prepared to pay, but with a couple to token purchases we left, and decided to explore the town close by.

There were several Antique markets in the Main Street which contained a labyrinth of small stalls selling even more expensive nicknacks.

Saturday evening seemed like a good excuse for a bottle of wine, not that we needed an excuse for that.

There were more episodes of Downton to plough through, but I came out the other side with a more pronounced accent than I had before.
