Shopping in Quartzsite

How can I describe a shopping day in Quartzsite. Maybe these pictures show it best. Norm and Ron are coming up just one of the many rows of vendors and this is just in one section. More vendors and the big tent of commercial exhibits are across the street.
Just about anything is here and there is lots of it. Look at how many bits there are and this is just one box. Boxes and boxes of tools and nuts and bolts. It's a giant Hardware Sales! The boys can keep busy for hours looking through this stuff.
This vendor had old books, kids toys, glass figurines, plants, tools, glassware, etc and etc. We don't need or even want any of this stuff, but we are here for the adventure!
This machine is making homemade ice cream. Did we have any? No, it's just a little to cold outside. Shortly before this picture was taken the wind started to come up and the clouds were moving in for our evening rain.
