Exhausted myself phsyically and mentally this morning. Got to the sales at 7:00 and walked the entire way through the flea market area without buying anything until the last row. A CzechM60 canteen. Not exciting but I didn't have one. Then it was the long walk through the downtown main street. Found a Buddy L hook and ladder truck from the 1940's that I negotiated for and then nothing until I reached the other end of town. Bought the wife a little something and made the long trek back on the other side of the street. Found some 50 cent cars and then finally someone with military stuff. Picked up an unissued Pederson device carrying case and a box of 1940 Lebel ammo. Probably won't go bang but it's wartime. By this time it was 10:00 and I just drove around the neighborhoods only occasionally stopping but it was all baby stuff or junk so I gave up around 11:00 and came home. This event is huge and I could have driven around for another two hours. Walking beyond the flea markets and the main drag are pointless as they get all spread out after that.
