Thank Heaven For Polybagged Pink Poodles

Brimfield Antiques Show, Brimfield Massachusetts

As I was taking this photo I was joined by a fellow who seemed to be enjoying this display a bit more than you'd expect. He was taking a photo with his cell phone and enthusiastically said to the vendor "You should put up a sign that says for $5.00 you'll move the poodle!!" The vendor gruffly replied "I should put up a sign that says for $5.00 I'll let you take a freakin' picture." OK then!

Permanent Gossip

You can almost hear the gossip that was shared under this hair dryer over the years...whispered voices floating on the breeze...along with that chemical perm smell...

My Joints Hurt

Even though I'm self-employed I called in sick today. Cough, cough...wink, wink.

I took a "mental health" day and trekked for miles on joint-jolting gravel paths in 85 degree blazing-sun-dust-heat. But the joyous, quirky sensory overload that is Brimfield is just what I needed.

Furry Little Flower Buds

Yes, I know the common name of this plant.

It just seems so naughty to use it in the title.
