The Auction

Saturday Morning – More Pictures

 

 

Saturday Auction (1)

This was the scene on Saturday morning shortly after 7:30 when we came over the hill by way of a field “lane” created just for this event – to keep the traffic away from the auction area.

Deb wasn’t able to come yesterday, so got a hug from her brother.

After meeting Keebler the Skunk, Ashlea drew a photo of him. I love it.

 

 

Saturday Auction (8)

I didn’t want a regular job at the auction – just wanted to enjoy every moment – but I did keep my eye on the number of runners waiting to take items to successful bidders. If the line became short – especially when runners were asked to do another job – I filled in when necessary.

I went to the attic of the house to see what I could see. This old window was not clear enough to get a great photo.

It was a bit easier to get pictures from the front window.
