Another Auction

I'm really enjoying these auctions that I work at occasionally!

People watching is always very entertaining!

Like this man. Is isn't everyday that you see someone

wearing an engineer's cap!

And what are you going to do when you ride your motorcycle

to the auction and unexpectedly fall in love with, bid

and win an antique spinning wheel??

This adorable log cabin home was auctioned off, too. It was just wonderful with a perfectly manicured lawn. It looked like Goldilocks and the Three Bears should have been there!

Some auctions are on site, like this farmhouse. Usually the house itself is auctioned off, too. This is fun, but then there are those Porta Johns to contend with! :) Today I worked an auction at our local fairgrounds. Nice...real restrooms, inside an air conditioned building, and out of the auction truck. :) This photo only shows about half of the room...I should have taken a shot of the 600 box lots on the other end! I got to do a little people watching today when there was a lull in my clerking. Bidders can be loud and flamboyant or they can be secretive and mysterious. I've seen people wildly waiving their bidder numbers in the air and some barely give a wink, nod or a little pull on their ear! Today's auction, here, was full of Nippon china, antique mantel clocks, stoneware crocks, and a huge doll collection. It was a nice change from the last auction, which was tractors, rifles and tools! :)
