I never saw a mouse trap like this. 🙂

Frank led in opening devotions and audience singing.

I know some of the auctioneers and runners, but since I don’t know each one, I will not give names.

A few of the auction organizers in conversation.

Linnea recording final bids.

Meredith announcing the next item up for sale.

Kevin and Angela serve on the auction committee.

A 40th Anniversary pie in memory of Charlene who died suddenly earlier this year. Earl and Charlene served on the auction committee.

Orpha watering flowers before this container was sold.

These marble rollers are handmade and one or two are sold each year. They often sell for $500 or more – beyond my budget.

These items were knitted by a blind woman.

I stayed until this Winross model truck was sold. It was the only thing on which I planned to bid – if it didn’t go too high. Cerwin drove a propane truck for Myer’s, and was there for 40 years. However, the company changed names several times. Cerwin has two of these, so we didn’t need one, but Cerwin didn’t want it to sell for under $40.00. It went for $170.00. I did not even bid.

Tomorrow night will be my final post for BDRA – the quilts.
