Today, I received a phone call from a friend.
She was having a garage sale and wondered if I wanted to come and look before it opened.
She had set some old books aside from the 1800's, which I just loved!
She seems to know what I like.
I also found a wonderful old mirror and a few other goodies.
Since I was taking pictures I thought I'd show you a few other things I like to pick up when I'm out and about.
I like to pick up old letters, here are a bunch I aquired this past week-end.
This is another item I bought a couple of weeks ago.
It needs to be cleaned up but I liked the color.
I'm not usually a fan of blue, but this works for me.
Here is a big momma raccoon that showed up while I was at the garage sale today.
Apparently, she and her family show up on a regular basis, ready to eat a little dog food!
My friends from Diane and Donna are having a fun giveaway so be sure to stop by and say hi!
Oh yes, if you mention my name I will get another chance to win.
And you know, everyone likes another chance!

I love old books. Many times my purpose for going to flea markets is to look for old books.
Have a blessed day!

Hi Debbie,
What great finds! I do love those letters. I love to see all the great things that others find. I almost get as excited as when I find things for myself.
That's a big racoon you have there. We have several around here too. They usually only visit here at night.
I went over and signed up for the giveaway and told them that you sent me.
Hugs,
June

love those old books. I would love to read those old letter.....how fun.
Love the vintage books! And the letters...I've never seen any letters in all my antique and flea market travels. That was a fabulous find!
Now that's a good friend to have! Love those books! And I am soooo jealous you scored those old letters, they are one of my favorites, but rather hard to come by these days.

Great finds!
Hugs, Lisa
