Let the Local Shopping Begin!
It’s hard to believe it’s already nearing the end of November! We’ve been so busy trying to buy a house in midtown Harrisburg, PA that we’ve missed a lot of flea markets. Now that our house closing is finally scheduled and before we plunge into a major renovation, we can start looking around for some weekend adventures. This post is a bit late as several good markets are happening today! But don’t let that stop you, we’ve found several other upcoming markets worth visiting, which we’ve listed below.
