I thought you might enjoy some scenery from the farm sale this last weekend. There seems to be more and more of these types of sales cropping up around here (cropping = farm talk) and I just love them. It's all about the ambiance of the farm, you know. Being out in the country, driving down a dirt road, stepping in "mud" patties.
And nothing says farm sale like a vintage truck and pumpkins.
Loved the bed filled with pillows. With a parasol in case it gets too sunny for you while taking your afternoon nap.
The pillows were only $20.00, I think. Should have grabbed one up.
Oh, look they had silver!!!
I thought this pumpkin display idea was sort of cute. Just the right combination of fancy and farmy.
This dog is one of those vintage carnival chalkware pieces like the one I received in February HERE. I like these kinds of quirky things to put around the house to liven it up a bit.
This display was very ingenious with its use of old school supplies. I didn't notice until now that the globe is upside down. I think that pointy continent is supposed to be Africa.
This prim dealer had a cute little pair of boots.
I was sort of captivated by these huge dried weedy things. I wonder if they are garlic or something.
OK, enough about the farm sale. Did you see the news story about the slew of exotic animals that got loose and are running amuck in Eastern Ohio? They've closed the schools in the area and they have SWAT teams and Jack Hanna of the Columbus Zoo on the scene trying to help wrangle them. Sort of surreal. I'm about 45 minutes from there, so hopefully no tigers will make it this far.

It was a lovely sale wasn't it? The farm was simply beautiful and the hospitality was amazing.

I saw that on the news about the exotic animals. I hope they can catch the remainder alive and not have to shoot them!

We are close as well. Hubby works in Zanesville. We are not going to the park today like we always do. Raining anyway, but wonder when it will be safe. How will they ever know how many for sure.
Love your pictures. Where exactly do you live?

Looks like it was a nice sale, with a little bit of everything. I love that first photo...old trucks and pumpkins are a sure sign of autumn!
I heard a blurb a few minutes ago about the wild animals roaming the countryside in Ohio...scary, indeed. Hope they get them all corralled before anyone gets hurt.

Great photos, Pam~ looks like a fun sale! I hadn't heard about the animals...how weird...stay safe!

Love the photos of the sale. The mix of silver, hay and white pumpkins was very unique. I just heard the news about the loose animals...I would stay inside too!!!

The truck with pumpkins is very cute Pam. Stay away from the tiger but do get us a picture through a window if you can.

Stay safe from the wild animals!

When buying an antique lion's head, make sure his body isn't still connected to it.

That silver set is so pretty. It reminds me of the one my mom used to have, and when she passed away, it was handed down to my sister. The picure of the pumpkins was so colorful and charming.

Cute sale! I wish we had more events like that around these parts. Oh, those animals escaping was so sad! Poor things had to be shot. How scary that must have been!
