the thought that this place was a figment of my imagination crossed my mind more than once...but unfortunately, it was oh.so.real.
if you never saw the movie jeepers creepers, you'll have no idea what i'm talking about, however if you have, you'll totally understand why this little "pit stop" on the way home from the pocono's had me feeling like we'd never get out of this barn sale alive!
we got out of the car and walked toward the barn to the sound of eery music playing over an old record player. the place was loaded with stuff, stuff and more stuff...the longer i walked around and the more i saw, the more i got the feeling these were items that had belonged to other travelers who stopped and were killed before the owner took their belongings from their cars and set them around to "sell them" and attract other travelers to stop on their way...yeah, i watch too many horror-ish type movies.
however, if you would have seen this guy in person come out of the barn to greet you...you'd start thinking you walked into a horror movie too. the lady in the background is a mannequin...but that guy is real. you know what else was real...the stench of alcohol emminating from his body and the gums where his teeth used to be. yeah, that was real too!
here is a video johnny d. took of our adventure...glad i am alive to share it with all of you!!

Ahahahah, oh my gosh you guys are to much. I probably would have ran to my car though. You stayed long enough to capture it on video.
OMG I really wish I hadn't watched that tonight, I swear I am going to have nightmares...***shakes the eebie jeebies off her***
Ummm that was way too freaky and I can't believe you stayed in that barn as long as you did!
Welcome to Vimeo! So much easier than waiting for Blogger video isn't it?
Oh my gosh! you crack me up! I'm going to have to set aside some time and catch up with The D'Angelo Family blog.
By the way - - that diaper cake is so cute!
Oh yeah - I forgot to tell you....when I told my co-worker I ordered a diaper cake from you, she said, "Oh, great!" As we were talking, I said we should put our names on the cake (meaning the edible cake) because we were having a birthday/shower/congrats party all in one. Well, she said, "Don't put my name where the baby poops." I said, "What??" She said, "On the diaper cake. Our names shouldn't be on there - that doesn't make sense." I said, "No the REAL cake. The one we eat." She said, "Yeah. The diaper cake." I said, "The diaper cake is made out of diapers." "Oh!" she said, "I thought it was a cake in the shape of a diaper!"
It was so funny! You have to be there to get the full funny, but we laughed and laughed!
