Dave finished his meetings Thursday night and Friday all four of us were heading to Mesa for the day. Warren's sister, Shirley, had told us about the Mesa Market Swap Meet after she and Duane had been there in past years. It sounded fun and we thought we would wander through it for a few hours. There are 1600 booths with everything from tools to fossils to spas, decorative items, food, souvenirs.
Some of our favorite items included:
stone tables made from the red rocks in the Sedona area. Would have loved to bring one home! This one
has a mat finish, and the next one is glossy. Both were gorgeous.
One booth had lots of "fossils". not sure that they were real, but it was interesting.
There was a LOT of metal decorative items.
We saw a lot of cute whimsical rock bugs.
we wanted to bring this one home for Amy's yard, but knew we couldn't get it in the suitcase.
This one was a marvel. See how it balances on that tiny point?
This is just a small sampling of what we saw. I think the only thing we bought was some packets of dip mixes and a t shirt for Harvey, Warren's dad. We found a shirt with the name of his coffee group in Glasgow - the Romeos. Retired Old Men Eating Out. Perfect!
