Bette Davis is credited with saying “Old age isn’t for wimps.”  I would like to amend this to “Old age AND CANDLESTICK PARK are not for wimps.”  The afternoon wind was brutal!

Having said that, the show was fantastic!  The Goldmans did a great  job of organizing and promoting the first ever Candlestick Park Antique Faire.  There was a large and friendly crowd to welcome us and we sold lots.  A little advice — buyers: come in the morning; sellers: leave the tents at home. 

But now it’s time to focus on the Alameda Point Antique Faire coming up in two weeks on Sunday, August 1st.  Here are few pictures of things we’re bringing: 

More soon, Marilyn

Every July, Ron and I travel north to attend the Portland Expo Antique Faire and visit old friends from when we used to sell there.  Sometimes we are even able to buy a few things to sell in California.  That’s where we found the brass letters in the previous post: they spell United States Post Office and are from St. John (northern Portland.)

We’re heading back down to California tomorrow so here are more pictures of things we’re taking to the CANDLESTICK ANTIQUE MARKET on Sunday:

Hope to see you at Candlestick on Sunday — Row F, Spaces 20-21-22!  Marilyn

We’re back in Oregon getting things ready that Little Sister brought from the Midwest, as well as things we brought back from our trip to Europe, AND pieces we’ve found recently in the Northwest.   Here are some preview pictures:

I’ll try to post more pictures before Sunday.  Marilyn
