Wednesday came and went too quickly!

The sun was shining, the birds were singing,


the geese and gosslings relaxed in the shade......... it was a beautiful day to visit the Red Barn!
We've been restocking the barn and it's hard to keep up with the picture taking.
These pictures were taken this morning (Wednesday) but some of those items may not be there now, we had a nice steady stream of shoppers that left with arms full and a smile on their face.
As I was leaving mid afternoon, there was much unpacking of more boxes going on!

See you Thursday, Friday, Saturday!

And so we begin the setup

The collage of pictures below is what we were looking at this morning! ...and that wasn't all of the boxes Click to enlarge


Yes, there's lots of work to do! Today we unloaded lots and lots of boxes and got a good start. Our previous slide show host is not available as I just found out when going to upload the pictures, so we are now hosted by Flickr.....we'll try them out.
Below is the slide show of a few areas where I could take pictures of "the beginning".
Don't forget there's the loft of the barn, the Red Shed, and the Garden Shed too! We'll be loading them all up. Lots of really great items.

FALL SALE DATES
