The Outhouse Market

A flea market called the outhouse market is located just outside of York Town. And an arrow sign nailed to an old tree points you to the best flea market around. Cause it's hidden behind some outhouses folks need to look for it, it's hard to find. And yet, it has quite a reputation as the place ... to find those one of a kind. You'd think that its unsavory locale would mean business would be non existent. And to eke out any kind of living you'd have to be pretty darn persistent. But the irony is... profits doubled since the vendors moved their businesses there. For it seems that people think it’s kinky and therefore, it’s always a crowded affair.
