Laura likes old vehicles....and this beetle she liked(wanted)....but didn't get it nor the ole completely refurbish pick-up.
Isaac liked an old Farmall-tractor at the auction-he didn't get it either.
Evan had his eye on a dirt bike and with a bidding card in hand he anxiously awaited.....he didn't get that either.
This auction was swarming with people that wanted this sort of stuff (junk) and willing to pay.
I saw a few things I liked and show Kerry b-4 I headed home to put dinner out for the help.....the saw horses-$1, the cubby like cupboard-$10 and the other stuff Kerry got for not much that we can use.
Today held disappointment for the kids but...that's what auctions are all about!..... you wait with great anticipation....and someone else has deeper pocket or parents that are less practical. ....and let him have the Volkswagen beetle!
AUCTIONS: a wonderful place to sit and just watch people,there is all sorts of unique looking humans...one guy even had his shaggy beard in a braid! Others have more painting on their body than a musuem has hangings on the walls!!! Fascinating & entertaining to say the least!
