I have a few more pictures to help you visualize what it was like to attend our local mud sale.
There were some “interesting” things in the field rows.
I went back to the animal pens because there were too many people there during my first visit.
This little guy was mesmerized with the calves.
He stood there for a long time without moving.
Even when his dad talked to him, he didn’t move.
I am fascinated with carriages, but since I don’t have a horse, I didn’t bid on any. 🙂
I had never seen inside a buggy, so opened the door and was surprised by the beautiful interior.
Cerwin was disappointed that I didn’t take a picture of the dashboard.
I was parked at our nieces home not far from the back field, so my last pictures were taken when I stopped and turned around to look at the line of straw, hay, and corn fodder bales.
Our small village comes alive with buggies, cars, buses, and people on this day.
People park their vehicles anywhere there is a spot (and it’s not roped off), and shuttle buses take people back and forth from the fire hall to several local churches – including ours.
After I got home, Cerwin and I shared one of the delicious (cream-filled) donuts I had purchased.
So ended my annual visit to the mud sale.
It looks as if mud sales are an excellent way to accomplish spring cleaning — both to sell things one no longer needs and to sell things made during the long winter. The carriages are wonderful — but it looks as if there’s not much room between the front and back seats in the buggy! Thanks for sharing these wonderful shots!
I thought the same thing – that it looks tight between the front and back seat.
I always love to follow your annual mud sale! It fascinates me! This year, I was at a quilt retreat when you were posting these. I saw on my phone that you had posted, but waited until I got home to see all of your pictures so that I could enjoy them on my desktop. Thanks for sharing!
I saw that you were at a quilt retreat. I didn’t stay at the mud sale very long this year, because of the baby shower (which I posted ahead of the mud sale pictures). They were the same day.
aren’t the piglets just precious!? 🙂
Yes, just as cute as can be!
