Sounds like you made some good finds and made the best of the heat! -
Love your pics! Looks like dragonfly heaven! -
Yep! -
We had a lot of folks ask us about Hometalk!

I AM SOOOOO JEALOUS!! Tractor seats and ceiling tiles galore!! Not to mention dragonfly parts!! The ditch diving was almost what I was doing today. I've been eyeing this pile of wood from an old decrepit building that was torn down a couple of years ago. Finally talked hunny into escorting me so I could have a close up. I found some goodies - a great picture frame, an old wooden chair and some great boards for signs. And it was HOT!! Not as hot as OK but definitely "glowing" up a storm!! LOL -
That's awesome, Tina! Big smile :)

Those trips and finds like you did today are the best and most fun! This time of season we can't really dig like that since this area has a lot of copperheads and rattlesnakes. So, we are kinda limited until a cold spell. I am writing down old home places that we see around here and just waiting for a cold snap!!

@Tina - that's partly why I wanted an escort cause I was afraid there would be snakes. Didn't see any (fortunately) but my husband threatened me and said if I stepped on a nail he would kill me!! I do have a pair of "girl" work boots so I may just go back . . . . .

Would love to see what you did with your finds -
In the works!
-
I'm an okie too! Next trip home we're stopping in Ada with a big truck! Let us know what you make with your finds. -
I certainly will!
-
My mouth is watering just looking at the pictures. Great place and you certainly came up with neat things, especially that ladder! -
Thank you Donna!

If I ever got to a place like this, I would have to have a pickup truck and a large U-Haul to get out of there! I LOVED, LOVED the pictures and look forward to seeing some finished projects. Be sure to show the befores when you post the afters. Were the prices resonable. So many of these places want too much money! -
Yes, DeAnna is reasonable on her prices. I will post before and after pictures. The Oklahoma heat is cramping my style a little bit. I am starting early in the morning and the temps rise quick. It is 10:00 am here and already 100. So, I work on getting my dragonflies orders done. My personal projects are coming along slowly:) Surely fall is right around the corner!

Hey, here in GA we feel your pain! It is all we can do to keep our yard halfway in shape. Don't want to mow too much because limited rain! And there are enough bugs to carry off a grown man not to mention West Nile Virus found in all metro counties! Our projects are on hold until it gets down to 80!
