*Labor Day Monday 2009*

Over 50 cars from the Metropolitan area came out to participate in our First Annual Antique Rod and Custom Car Show on Labor Day Monday. The clouds and the rain threatened to ruin our show day but somehow and someway we were able to keep the showers away until just before 3pm.

One of the coolest parts of the show was watching the cars enter and exit the parking lot. There was something so magical about watching these pieces of history glide on the street. Mouths were open and hearts were beating as the drivers instantly became the coolest people in the universe.

Attendees were able to talk with the owners of the cars and see the cars up close and personal. Drivers and attendees were able to take pictures in front of the cars and take a piece of history home with them thanks to photographers Dwight Stoddard, Mike Jones and myself {Malonda Richard-Sia}.

The show featured some of the most amazing vehicles in the DC Metropolitan Area including Volkswagen Bugs, Ford Cruisers, Lamborghini's, Fairlane's, Cadillac's and much more. It was truly eye candy for the mind and soul.

Thanks to all who were able to participate in the show and thanks to all of the attendees and staff. We hope to see you and yours next year.

On Saturday, April 18th, 2009 I had the pleasure of meeting some very cool people who were bold enough to have some fun in front of complete strangers during our impromptu model casting call. All models were asked to take pictures {see below} and walk the market runway while being videotaped.

Some of the willing participants were employees and vendors of the Funky Fleamarket but most were Friends and boy did we have fun.

The model casting call was a bonafide success. Thanks to all of the super cool models who took time out to audition for us. You can check out their pictures below.

We still need models so if you are interested please email a shot of yourself along with the following information (Full Name, Address, Phone, Email, Shirt Size, Pant / Skirt Size, Shoe Size) to info@friendsinthemarketplace.com
