He and my aunt are now in assisted living and there was an auction for the farm and household stuff, but he made little planes that he used to sell or give as gifts. He still had over 500 in the garage. We've enjoyed the people most of all at the markets. Hope your next one is even better.Gardener on Sherlock Streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11367115529793643362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-8469551673040717122015-11-17T10:53:36.592-05:002015-11-17T10:53:36.592-05:00Well, you couldn't pass up those wonderful fab...Well, you couldn't pass up those wonderful fabrics at that price!
