Flea Market Extravaganza


What do you do when it rains the entire Labor Day Weekend? In Savannah, you can go to Keller's Flea Market to see low country, southern stereotypes in action. We visited their website before going, and it gave a pretty accurate insight to what was in store–cluttered, unorganized, outdated goodness. I've never seen so many Confederate flags, cowboy boots, or unattended children in one place. The Southern accents were so thick here, I mistook many of them for whole other languages.

I'm convinced you can buy just about anything at this flea market–bootleg everything, scared puppies crowded 10 to a cage, out-dated technology, antiques, every promotional cup set ever released by McDonald's in the 80s, a pet skunk, and–as proudly advertised by one vendor–size 50DDD bras. Despite all the temptation, we were able to control ourselves & leave with only photographs:

The old Keller's Farm truck:


This is just creepy…


Canon Rebel, meet your ancestors:


Holy crap…literaly:


Cool rusted-out farm equipment:


Random, old, dusty stuff:


If we were allowed to have a dog, we would have saved one of these poor guys:


There was even stuff hanging from the rafters:


I know we don't work for Pepsi anymore, but we couldn't resist the Shaq Attaq Paq:


…and more Pepsi:


The gargantuan, flamboyant cow out front leaving no doubt you've found the flea market:


Not a bad way to spend a rainy Saturday :)
