Filled the van with Heywood Wakefield dog bones and wishbones (Status: gonna be a lot of work)

Whoo, it's a hot one today!  Luckily the ac works (sorta) in the van because it was an hour round trip to gather a triple wishbone table, with 2 leaves, and five (wait, did he say "five?) dogbone chairs.  Plus a bonus Hey-Wake find from last week!

Overview of Springfield Extravaganza May 17, 2013 (Status: one of the largest antique marts and flea markets in America)

On May 17 I drove 30 minutes west of Columbus to Springfield Ohio for the spring edition of the Springfield Extravaganza.  The extravaganza engulfs the Clark County fairgrounds for three days, twice a year, and you may have seen it on the premiere episode of  the PBS show Market Warriors.  This thing is MASSIVE, I had to give up after eight hours and head home (empty handed).
