Fish Fanny Pack
The Big Pine Flea Market is kind of a local custom. We go whenever we have wheels although we don't always buy much.
I couldn't believe it when I saw this lady at the flea market, but I didn't get my camera working in time to get a really good shot.
What she is wearing is a fanny pack/waist bag that is in the shape of a rainbow trout.
