Weekend Adventures

It started Friday with a BIG garage sale. My friend Pam had closed her store over a year ago and had a basement full of merchandise to get rid of. I have the perfect driveway and tree to set up under, so why not I say, bring it on. We had quite a time coordinating our schedules, but knowing Sunday was The Coburg Antique Show I said oh well… We can do it Friday and Saturday… Opps I forgot Saturday was Albany’s Antiques in the Streets Show. She was on her own for Saturday, thankfully her husband/helper would be available. We had a great time, and got rid of a basement load of stuff!

Dave and I were still packing the truck at midnight,,, and after an hour and a half nap we were up and going. We like to be first in line because Dumbo, pulling the trailer takes up a lot of room. (more than 65 feet)

Fun being on the grass, with lots of room to spread out.

Kinda makes my flimsy excuse for a garden look even worse by comparison.

We made ourselves feel better with a truck load of produce, and flowers.

  1. Wow you must be exhausted, I know I was by Saturday night, we got home from Montana on Thursday night late, I worked the next day, all day and then was up at 6:00 for Barn House and then on to Vintage Gathering and then on to my Farm Girl Gathering so when 8:00pm came Saturday night I was in bed and slept 12 hours. I can only imagine how exhausted you were. I hope to go next year to the Coburg Sale.

  5. Hi Joy!

    I am visiting all my Monticello friends today. I love all your pictures. They are just beautiful! You are one busy girl, but it looks like so much fun! I'm getting ready to head to Warrenton this weekend. I'm so excited! I would ask if you have ever been, but I am sure you probably have!

    xo,
    Adrienne
