Missouri, Illinois Flea Market Help

Gander

My wife likes flea markets, the larger outdoor type. I am hoping that some of you might be able to recommend an event or two in the St. Genevieve, MO area, say within an hours drive or so. I have used Google and located some, but the ads can be misleading. I would prefer a personal recommendation. Might there be any other must see sights there as well? I think I have a handle on the location of the vineyards, distilleries, breweries and gun shops, but perhaps I have missed a few. We are going to be there this weekend for a short 4 day stay, arriving in the area from the north Saturday AM and we would appreciate any input you may have.

If you get a little farther south to sikeston. You need to go to Lamberts cafe there use to be a good flea market there as well and for me the tractor boneyard is better then a musuem

It has been grealty reduced, it did used to be huge, but it has spawned many smaller flea markets, junk stores and resale shops up highway 67, going north all the way to arnold

Its seems most good flea markets turn to junk sellers. That is what is happening to the one I go to. About half of it is new China junk now.
