Let us know how it works out. I take my wife every year to the Portland Swap Meet for our anniversary. It's dinner out every night and she gets to sleep in every morning. Been going to this meet for 23 years and she still likes to go.

Okay, enough of this nonsense. Before you know it, all wives will expect to go to "our" swap meets.

Taking your wife to a swap meet? Kind of in line with what my wife once told me : "Appliances are NOT gifts".

Once again, you are spot on.

I knew someone who gave his wife a lawnmower for her birthday.

I offer to take my wife each year. Even before I can finish asking, she says, "No thanks."

Honestly, it's better off that way. LOL!

Be advised, she might get quite soft and emotional with this. It will be an opportune time to suggest you and she maybe slipping in to the Hershey swap meet for a couple days. hehehe.
You sneaky old rattler you.

My wife even agreed to accompany me on a dump run...bless her heart!
I think she was curious to see where all the junk wound up.

Hmmmm, maybe I'll buy my wife a '35 roadster. She says she wants a "classy" old Ford. Just to be safe, I'll keep the title in my name.

My wife loves going to swap meets with me, and she's good value...quite often finds what I'm looking for. More eyes on the lookout certainly helps.
