I took Sofi (granddaughter number 2) on the junkin’ trip with me yesterday and she was a big help. I love spending time with her.

I actually went to the shop on Saturday only to find they were closed for a family reunion.

I shopped around outside anyway and found some small items I liked. Well, I took those items and put them behind the fence what there is a bunch more junk.

Then when me and Sofi returned yesterday my goodies were still there. And I found more goodies.

The concrete boy is a fountain piece. He is kind of broken in places but someone will buy him. I’ll take the piece to my booth.

I set one of my plants in it so you could see what it looks like. The plant is too short and small but you get the idea.The planter was $5. My whole haul of stuff was only $42.

This photo of the table is much better. It will probably get a makeover for Furniture Fixer Upper Day.

A small rusty candleholder (?) caught my eye. I already have a plan for it.

I didn’t notice the large galvanized bucket had “The Pounds” written on one side. That’s okay. The other side is blank.
