my mom has been telling me about the long beach antique (flea) market for some time.
the trick is, its only once a month, and my visits home haven't ever overlapped.
this time it did overlap, and on sunday, bright and early, we went.
not wanting to ship things, i didnt end up buying much,
but i did take some pictures of my favorite items.
namely: a gigantic old edison bulb, a chess set made of salt and pepper shakers,
and a collection of small wooden skateboards.
of course i cant help but compare orange county to new york/brooklyn,
and i have to say: the long beach market's food (hot dogs, pretzels)
aint got nothin on the brooklyn flea.
