From Standing in the Dirt to Cyberspace

Out, out damn stuff! All the gear I used to use to sell rocks to the Indians is going into a Santa Fe garage sale. Oh no, even the five inch dolls one Aboriginal and the other a Bushie swagman (hobo)Tables, table covers, glass and chrome cases, velvet covered styrofoam displays. My iron skillet and lantern (I tried to show the flavor of the miner''s life in my selling displays) But wowee I found a display rock hidden away that has a gorgeous crystal blob peeking at me and it looks like it may go much further into the ironstone...if it does its worth $500.00 wholesale! IF, MAYBE and IT COULD! The gamblers chant. My laptop weighs so much less than all these cases and displays and lights and tent etc. I embrace cyberspace sales at my website www.ParchedEarthOpals.com! A few bucks a month for a server and a good scanner and my treadmill doesn''t weigh so very much. And good luck to the new entrepreneurs who are jumping so enthusiastically into the gypsy vendor game and buy my gear at bargain prices. Helps them and adds to my airplane ticket to the Land Down Under fund which at present stands at zero, zip, naught!
