When I moved, I sold all but a perfect set of french copper cookware my parents bought for me in france. I have a collection of decorated tin boxes, like old tea boxes. And an extensive collection of cashmere sweaters and blankets. <BR/><BR/>That's more than enough, don't you think?Pigtown*Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775512940294150252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890721230860764943.post-66769353210734804012008-05-08T11:17:00.000-07:002008-05-08T11:17:00.000-07:00Ahhh, I loved the Marin City Flea.

I still can list the "ones that got away" and can still walk around my apartment and relive tracking down the "scores". I can remember the special drag I wore for The Flea: layers and cowboy boots (that have rarely been worn since and still carry vestiges of the mud of my last Marin Flea). It's demise coincided with an end for me of a certain kind of collecting and no other flea market could measure up. So I just stopped. Ebay did take over for a while. Earlier this year I got a taste of Alameda which was awesome but I'm like a junkie with my drug of choice: I can't even go near that block or I'll buy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
