Junk Hippy Roadshow and a Brown Recluse



FleaQuest has finally staked a place in my heart.  Months ago I came upon Flea Market Style Magazine, and FleaQuest is their go-to guide for vintage/antique/repurposed marketplaces by date and location.  So DFL and I hit the Junk Hippy Roadshow today in Tulsa after we cleaned up a crime scene at home.  
I am a barefoot-at-home type of gal.  It's better on my feet, and keeps dirt from getting tracked into the house. So we have a shoes-in-the-closet policy, and the kids miraculously abide.  Wandering happily down the main hall of our home (barefoot of course), I saw two small insects marching in sync.  No biggie right?  As I approached them, I had to take a second look.  It was a spider and a beetle, about the same 1/2 inch size.  The spider was brown and 6-legged, and was stalking this poor black beetle across the hall.  He eventually reached the beetle, crawled on top of him and began furiously spitting out his webbing to tie the sucker up!  By this time my husband, father-in-law and son are ready to pounce.  Is there a violin shape on the spider's back?  If so, it's the dreaded brown recluse, stalking his prey in our own home!  You be the judge.


The heebie geebies were flowing strong.  What better an escape than some Junk Hippy Roadshow?  So many wonderful repurposed furniture pieces, art, antiques, clothing, vintage quilts, and other notions.  Catch em while you can.
