Auction In Ohio

Saturday mornings in Ohio are often spent at auctions buying treasures while visiting with new found friends. Today found us at just such an auction! Ron and I both spotted items we wanted and just had to wait til they came up for bid. It wasn't a very large auction but there was plenty to look at.
This group of old chairs and the sweet bed were calling my name but I resisted. Where would I have put them?
There was some farm equipment and tools too.
We won the bid on a twenty gallon crock! It will be great at the cabin to hold our firewood.
I bid four dollars on a box of stuff and this is what I pulled out (after throwing the junky things in the garbage). Old pie tins, candle holder and stuffer, glass luncheon plates, a little pitcher and bowl, small colored bowls, plastic trays and cups, an old thermos and cute red canisters.
But the coolest thing was this egg scale. Love it!!! And it works too. My chicken eggs measured at large! Most of these fun items will end up at the cabin's kitchen....as soon as we get it finished! Which reminds me we also got a kitchen sink for just $3.00! And Ron found a lot of machinist tools at great prices! Can't wait for the next auction!
