What a great turn out today! Thanks to everyone who purchased vintage tiki, barware, etc. Had a great time vending, as always.
Special thanks to Chris and Karen for organizing this great event.
Looking forward to vending next month.... And to celebrate the marketplace's 2nd Anniversary!

A “Shopper’s” View at the itmp; what a great variety of new and vintage “stuff-So hard to choose where to plop down the bucks. We spent plenty on many items even though we got there late. Lucky for me Doug still had some F. I. menus and Kinny still had his hand painted “Pingo” Mug which now belongs to me. Great to see so many familiar faces! And so much talent unner one roof!
Thanks Chris! Thanks Karen! And thank you Vendors and Artists!
