My day trip to Crane and Branson

I haven't done much flea marketing lately so this blog has been sort of dead I guess I could talk about other things





Thursday I went on a flea marketing trip with my mom who is now Im happy to say officially retired and has a new car that we can speed around in


I woke up early and made a cd to listen to on the way lots of 80s music and some stuff from The OC ( I don't think my mom enjoyed most of it )


We ended up going to just 2 flea markets and then out to eat at a nice Chinese place were I loaded up on sushi


I didnt find much to buy but I was looking for vintage toys and at good prices and that doesn't always happen.. Flea market 1 I bought the ugly doll in the red hat I felt bad for her she was in a bin of mcdonalds toys and looking very lonely I also bought the wedding bears

The next flea market always has higher prices than most and I found squeak toy after squeak toy and they were all crazy expensive I found a casper that I wanted badly but it was 150 there were lots of mobleys that drooled at but couldn't buy because they wanted way more than they cost online
I did however end up buying the elephant bank in great shape but missing a stopper.
After flea marketing we watched Problem Child and Don't tell mom the babysitters dead flash back to my childhood.. and of course I cracked out the old year books that I love so much.

 

 

 

Saturday me and Josh went on a day trip to Crane and Branson mo

We started out with Breakfast at Braums and went on To crane it had so many flea markets that I didnt even have time to go to all of them before heading to Branson

 

Heres what I bought

The cat is musical and goes on a crib and the clown is a squeak toy and the bunny is a bank

the dinosaur is a Darling Dinosaur I think and the Bunny is a squeak toy that I passed up the last time I went to Branson because I had already but to much..

 Josh spotted a bag of Strawberry shortcake PVC and I found another bag with some of the pets and other toys in it.

                         This is a Strawberry shortcake mushroom house it opens up

                            Here are some of the things I saw that I found interesting
                                              The excessiveness of this makes me laugh

 Im not going to lie this creeped me out .....it was sitting in the corner of the dark part of the flea market and my imagination went wild.

 Josh bought this for a laugh it was like The Bob Ross of fishing.....

 This house is featured in the book Weird Missouri they sell handmade goods here I have never been inside though...

 If this had been a stuffed animal and not a basket I would have been very excited it has the face of a Rushton.

 Im not usually into old lunch boxes but I loved this! I love the flintstones it is by far one of the best cartoons ever.

After flea marketing we went out to a seafood place because I had been craving crab legs since the beginning of summer and I finally got them
This hotel was next to it its abandoned...

 This is one of the many abandoned theme parks in Branson Celebration City it didnt last long,

 When I found this place I thought it was part of the abandoned theme park Camelot but when I did more research it turns out that it probably isn't so Im not sure what this area is

t                              his was on the way home its an old fallen in cottage

 

 

 

That's all for now
