Friday we were home and it was just too hot to get much done outside. There's so much going on in the city (Reno) this weekend. Street Vibrations, so there is thousands of motorcycles everywhere. Thursday we actually tried to go by Carson City Harley Davidson, as they had music, vendors etc. but honestly we couldn't get too close and decided against it even though they had shuttles from just about anywhere nearby to get you there. Oh well, fun to look at.

Yesterday, Ken heard an ad for the Candy Dance Festival in Genoa. This was started back in 1919 by the local women as a way to raise money to keep the street lights on. They sold candy and held a dance. Now it has grown to over 300 vendors and they still have a dance in the evening. That was already sold out a while ago. So we thought oh why not...we got up at 0500 and were there by 0845. It's pretty amazing! The town main drag is shut down and filled with vendors! Wall to wall people! We had a great time..found a couple of old dishes I liked and Ken found a few tools he liked.

The volunteer fire department was selling beer and drinks so of course we had to support them..actually got a couple of nice 16 oz beer glasses and a few drinks.
We were walking the mile (or at least it seemed like it)..back to the truck and stopped at another peddler faire they had going..found an oak hoosier cabinet we fell in love with! So put a down payment and will go back tomorrow to pick it up..was just too crowded today to try to move the truck to pick it up. So we've got that for the "bunkhouse".

I did call Outwest Builders on Friday, and it looks like it should be later in the week when it's delivered! Can't wait!
