I am set up st the what cheer iowa flea market. Guy down the road from me has AC dealer tin sign. Not good shape, about 18"x24". He's got a $300.00 price tag ok it. Bottom 3rd is pretty rusty. Only been here about 4 hrs and it is the only AC thing I have seen, but I have only seen about 1/3rd of the place. 108 miles from my door to here. Shameless this ol ferd powered mochine shook, rattled and rolled down here. If I can get the ol gal to show me how to post the pictures you ask about last summer, they will get put up. Got many hundred vendors here alreday with dozens more comming tomorrow baring more rain.

I think I found a good 1. It looks like a 1947 C Allis Chalmers toy tractor. Yes its been play'd with. Yes its missing some paint. Tires are the old Goodyear Sure Grips. I won't say rare but I cannot remember seeing another original 1. I'll put her on the shelf with the rest.

Been wearing American Optical (AO) aviator sunglasses since 1970 but they are getting hard to find at the military exchanges. I like them better than Ray Bans and they cost a lot less.

Well you guys missed a good 1. There were tall blonds, short blonds, skinny blonds and heavy duty blonds, from coal black to ash blonds. There was an old song- Standing on the Corner Watchin All the Girls Go By. That's sorta what I did for the past 2.5 days. But I got to set down. Weather was beautiful. It warmed up today and the ladies dressed accordingly. One very bad exception, a gal came by, face looked like she was 80 but probably wasn't a day over 50. She had been a biker chick in her glory days. She had the short-shorts on and a T shirt on top. Gal was COVERED with tattoos. They ran down into the, well you guys know where. Maybe this being retired is what its cracked up to be. Ya we sold a lot of honey too. Sent it to Ohio on the east to Colorado on the west, Northern Minnesota to Joplin No. Had a lot a fun talking to the gals, the neighbors, and the old gal. I'll get off the subject till next August when I get to go again. Lotta guys and gals with AC hats on.
