The group shop is opening again . . . sort of. [View all]

The owner has taken quite a hit and can't afford to hire anyone to help her. She'll be a one woman show manning the place for only a portion of the day for a portion of the week. Another day is set aside for dealers to restock and clean. I went in yesterday and cleaned my booths and checked things out. Everyone has to wear a mask, 1 person per aisle, arrows on the floor, etc., etc., etc. Fortunately I live in an area where it's uncommon to see unmasked people and the shop is in Vermont which has about the best numbers in the nation for stopping the virus. I'm hopeful. Now I'm going to have to figure out where to get stuff to sell. So far no garage sales or bazaars, my favorite haunts. Auctions are online for the most part and when the whole world is bidding against you it's hard to get a good deal. Time to investigate the long forgotten stashes and see if there's anything good. I'm also going to make some masks to make a couple of bucks. It'll work out eventually.
