I love people watching too! And flea markets are definitely a great place for this, 'cause you're not just watching people, but noticing the things they're attached to and not, and who goes to the flea markets, why, and what they buy. Usama and I went to a junk yard with spentcattle in Michigan City-- the stuff they had there was crazy! Even a rusted truck-- not a toy, a real car.

I love flea markets... I used to go to them every Sunday with my dad. I remember the Maxwell Street Market in Chicago (Jew-Town), Swap-O-Rama (there were a couple), we would even go in search of garage sales throughout the city. It's a good outing if anyone's looking for a Sunday/Weekend event. I wonder if Kane County has another one next month.

Kane County happens every month, rain or shine. It's fantastic. Bring cash. Wear comfortable shoes. This piece is the first of 3 - the other 2 will be uploaded in the next week. www.kanecountyfleamarket.com/
