Last Day :( ...Bargain Day :)

City: Nashville, TN
Odometer: 857.0
Soundtrack: Hit Parade of 1947, Machito,
Johnny Cash

Today being the last day of the sale, we were hoping it would be bargain day and for the most part it was. Many vendors had signs up saying "1/2 price", and we even saw one that said "Everything 25 cents". It was supposed to be a scorcher again today - and it was - the thermometer hitting the mid-90's even into the night. We again chose our sales strategically in the shade, and Chuck even used the umbrella for a while in the afternoon. The first scor
e of the day was a big one for Kim - a ceramic retro tourist plate from Hawaii in perfect shape (see pic). Other booty included a toy tractor, a quilt with a horse pattern, and 2 pairs of "shredder scissors". For some reason, we saw tons of glassware today - many vendors just had table after table of random glasses and ceramics.

There was a lot of great scenery again today, and we
even passed a car graveyard that had only really old cars (like from the 50's; see pic). Even though it was incredibly hot, we did luck out that it hasn't rained the past four days. We heard on the news that it was supposed to rain for the next four, and it did start to drizzle a tiny bit just as we were wrapping up our day.
