“Hi! This is Clio. My mom was trying to take a nice picture of me next to this work in progress, but then I threw up. She had told me earlier that I’m not a goat and shouldn’t eat grass, but I didn’t listen. Anyway, you should come see these pieces - and the patch of “fresh” pumpkins that is still growing! - at Wednesdays on Broadway Spring Valley, MN tomorrow (8/19) night from 5-8pm! I won’t be there because I tend to yell at other dogs, but my family would love to see you! Come find them at the end of the road!” 😉

Our next stop is Wednesdays on Broadway Spring Valley, MN this Wednesday, August 19! We still have a bunch of great inventory, and we are even going to whip up a few “fresh” items in the next few days! Can’t wait!
(The photo is from last year; come find us in our black trailer. We love this hometown downtown! 🫶🏻)

It sure was another great day at 2026 Downtown Oronoco Gold Rush Days!! And good news!! The weather ☀️ looks good again tomorrow - come see us in Lot D along Minnesota Avenue (see maps below ⬇️) from 8-2pm!

MORE good news - we picked up some fun items, drew on them, and got them cut! ✂️ (Thanks again for letting us use your driveway, Josh and Brianna!) These are just a few things that will be “fresh” tomorrow! 🎃

Finally, a HUGE note of gratitude to Papa and Nana for hanging out with our kiddos and hauling them here, there, and everywhere so we could be at Downtown Oronoco Gold Rush Days. We couldn’t have done this without you!! 🥹🫶🏻

(Slightly sappy post warning! 🙃) Yesterday was just the most amazing day. 🥹 We always love Downtown Oronoco Gold Rush Days, but you all blew us away yesterday. Your purchases help pay for braces and car insurance for a teenager and help us say “yes!” to one more entry for our competitive dancer. 🫶🏻 And to our family who makes side quests to pick up LP tanks (thanks, Dad Bruce! ❤️), lets us make new inventory in their driveway (We appreciate it SO much, Josh and Bri!), shows up with a hole punch (Thanks, Sonja and Dale! 🩷), “works the floor” while we grab food (You’re a pro, Brenda! 😎), THANK YOU, thank you, thank you. And to our customers - we had SO many fun conversations yesterday, and it was just the best day. 🥰 We have REALLY fresh inventory this morning (all the items in the pictures below and more!), and the word on the street is that there might even be another LP tank coming today! 😉 Come see us until 6pm today or 9-2 tomorrow at 2026 Downtown Oronoco Gold Rush Days!

Happy Gold Rush!!! 🥳 It’s going to be a great weekend! We are all set up and ready to go in Lot D! (See maps below - we are just off Minnesota Ave. and near city hall and the fire station.) We have so much new inventory, and we have some great neighbors with great items! Come see us 8-6 today (Friday) and tomorrow and 8-2 on Sunday!

For the first time EVER at a show, we have TWO of these big tanks ready to go!! Watch the video to see the exact moment I discovered I was, in fact, standing too close. 😆🤦🏼‍♀️🙃 Come see us at 2026 Downtown Oronoco Gold Rush Days from 8-6 on Friday or Saturday or 8-2 on Sunday!

We have another 100-lb LP tank ready to go! Hey Wednesdays on Broadway Spring Valley, MN - we’d love to see this one come back to SV! (Check out the stamp on top!) It’s heading to the Albert City Threshermen Show on Wednesday if it isn’t claimed before then! We have it priced at $295; the solar light on top is included. (Note: the last picture with it lit up is the last one we did; this one will look similar!)

08/02/2026

Our next stop is the Albert City Threshermen and Collector’s Show! (We’ll put a link to their page in the comments!) This is the COOLEST show, and this year they are featuring all pre-1930s equipment! Check out the schedule! ⬇️

Rose was on duty for supervision this afternoon. 🙃 If you’ve followed us for awhile, you might remember that all (but one! 🤣) of our barn kitties are named after presidents and First Ladies. She’s currently the only girl in our flock, and she’s a whole lot of kitty! 😉 Can you tell what we’re working on that we should have ready to go for Albert City?? 🌸
