Wild weekend

What a crazy weekend!  We got home late from our adventures Saturday, got a few winks of sleep and made it out to the season opener at Wolff's flea market rosemont.  We were up in the air on selling, and with lack of sleep and prep, we decided on going to shop! Together!
It was great fun and we got some amazing pieces.  A good handful of lamps (world globe lamp and a killer orange eyeball lamp), a sweet vintage porcelain "no swimming" city of Chicago lamp, an atlas prager beer thermometer (which will end up in our personal collection for awhile), lots of nifty smalls(more thermometers for the personal collection), a nice sick call/last rites box, a super Fab saddle mates cast aluminum spring cow ride (looks like Elsie!) And more!
Today we went back to the school to pick up the rest of our jarred creatures (all have been sold).  We dug around for awhile, Anna's small stature came in handy for the creepy crawl spaces in the basement and we got another haul.  We got some old explosion proof cage lamps, a bunch of beaker stands, more mortar and pestles, and an amazing collection of cell division mitosis models (all sold).
A busy, long weekend.  We are really having fun with our new open schedule. Horray!
