Graced with an absolutely stunning Sunday off, I headed out (late) to FOUR different flea markets/thrift spots in the western CT area. First stop was the New Brunswick Indoor Flea, which was much larger than I was expecting from the outside. Lots of variety, but I was caught a bit unprepared for the $1 entry fee - luckily I had a single George Washington on me to get in.
Next I ventured just down the road to Wright's Barn, a two-tiered, flea market-style spot with a café attached. Downstairs I found plenty of holiday themed trinkets, glassware, and things that will make your home look like it's straight out of a Farmhouse Pinterest page. Upstairs I found some very friendly vendors who were more than happy to strike up a conversation with anyone and everyone. Found a few cameras, too, but nothing that really stood out to me.
From there it was about a 20 minute trip to Collinsville Antiques, our third stop of the day. Tons of booths, nothing of any real substance for camera gear. Nostalgia out the wazoo, however. Really cool place if you like Hess Trucks, or old Americana.
Leaving Collinsville I thought I would have ample time to reach Antiques on the Farmington with enough time to browse before they closed. After swiftly missing the entrance, I got about 10 minutes of searching in before they started shutting the lights off on me (and a few other late shoppers). Not wanting to be a bother, and running out of free time myself, I called it a day and set sail for MA via some amazing backroads at sunset.
