I have created this Bonanza Sales Booth too:
1. Make available for Adoption some great Antiques and Older Collectibles that need new homes. It is important that another generation again take responsibility for these items for they are not just things. They are our collective memories, our History, and Past Culture. They were important items to family generations past, should they not also be important to us. The future takes care of itself, but the past needs our constant care and prayer.
2.There are times I come on to a good deal and cannot help myself to buy hoping I can find the right home for the item. I have had Collector Pox most of my life. They say there is no cure. So here I am
3. As a way for Mother Nature and myself to subsidize our income which is needed, and also leave flexibility of our time to pursue our other our other interests. Those being Church, Family [Grandchildren], Gardens, Fishing, Dance and Music, Travel, [and of course], Each Other.
4. Fathertime sells Exclusively through the Internet on our Bonanza Adopt an Antique Booth. We sincerely hope you like what you see in our booth, as we only sell what we love and attach importance too.
5.If you Find something of interest, Please message me and get any needed details regarding Item-Shipping-Insurance-and Payment. Remember Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed

February 1, 2018, The postal services is at it again, Big Time. I have just had to take hours editing my listings for shipping costs. Believe me there is NO free shipping. The first class package has taken a large increase going from 4.29 last January to 5.50 this January for 13 Oz. As a result where possible and practical I have edited listings to Media Mail pricing. It will save you money. BUT if you do want First Class or Priority let me know BEFORE you purchase and I will make it happen by editing the listing. I regret having to upward adjust other First Class listings. I hope the Post Office is not killing the Golden Goose. If you have a concern you are welcome to message me.......Fathertime
December 30, 2020: Well it has happened we have come to an end of a troubling year. I for one want to start over with the thought of better conditions and situations for 2021. The date December 28, 2020 is also the beginning of my Thirteenth year on selling on Bonanza. There have been many changes here, progress has been made. Near 900 sales have been made to satisfied customers. Bonanza is not the largest selling site, but there is satisfaction, and it is the least stressful to set up on and sell in my opinion. I welcome you to celebrate with me twelve years on Bonanza. Take a look at the Adopt an Antique Booth, What do you think? Your comments and thoughts are always welcome. Send me a message.
October 31, 2021, My, The outdoor year has flown bye, Now my focus will be getting new listings up and noticed in my Adopt An antique booth. I hope to set up a Antique Vintage Photos category in the coming Bonanza season. If you do follow you will be one of the first to see new listings. As always I will be competitive with price and mailing. As you most likely know mailing is getting to be a real challenge, that I work to keep under control the best I can. My other challenge I have is my eyes. The age is catching up with me and my eyes. My eyes have always been a problem, now I need to type slower and look closer.
October 29, 2022: The outdoor garden season is coming to a close. Today the last broccoli was cut then pulled. We are cleaning up outside getting ready to put things to rest. It is now the start of the Bonanza selling season, [let's hope]. I had quit a lull in sales during summer. I hope you can look and find something that piques your interest. I hope to have 2500 listings by the First of the new year. If you buy a lot, it will make me work real hard.
The wife and I wish you a most pleasant upcoming Holiday Season
NOVEMBER 30, 2022 It is time I was able and need to give you a heads up regarding the situation with my selling booth. I had a stroke and loss of left side vision and worsening cataracts on Nov 8th. Making things difficult. I took some of the booth off vacation mode today. I will put things back up for sale as I am comfortable to do so. I hope you have a Blessed Christmas Season
Jan 04, 2023 I am still having eye problems. I am spending this January doing a reorganization of my booth inventory so as to make it easier for me to find items as needed. What a job
Feb 16, 2023 It is finished, The inventory all reorganized so I can find it easier when need be. I edited most listings, adjusting prices both up and down, and adding more detail traits. The booth is now at 100%. That was a big job, a lot of hours put in. It was a real challenge me not seeing well. I hope you find the booth interesting.
Sept 4, 2023 The Adopt An Antique booth is now back up for your viewing. It has been a long haul getting to this point. Two cataract eye surgeries and now the new glasses. I am still struggling with sight mostly now I think still due to stroke. But I will be able to ship when needed. I will be adding some new items as I can. Life has thrown me some lemons, But I am trying to make Lemonade.
Nov 29, 2023 Merry Christmas Season to You and Your family. we had a nice Thanksgiving dinner here with the family Children and grandchildren, Thirteen of sixteen us. One grandson Jordan is this year in Japan with the Marine Corps.
I still having eye problems. Make book repairs a challenge, But I am doing it. I have been doing cosmetic and more book repairs for 20 plus years. Have a Blessed Christmas Season
