Day Four of Vacation - Final day

Oh my goodness, today was more beautiful than yesterday and I just couldn't image it would be!

It was 20 degrees warmer this morning when I left, so I didn't even need my Winter jacket!  As I warmed up the car this morning, I looked at the sky and it was so clear blue with streaks of red from the morning sunrise and there was a hot air balloon rising up!  Doesn't get much better than that!

I went to the flea market and was able to find a new button dealer!  No, she wasn't selling new buttons but she was a new vendor to me.  I spent a lot of time rooting through her buttons and she went to her van and got more!  I walked away with a baggie full.  Stayed tuned to www.VintageStation.etsy.com to see some them listed.  Some are keepers.  :o)  


The only other thing I found was a great salad bowl with two matching bowls by FireKing.  They are white and have the BC Comics on the sides, I just couldn't resist! 

Funny how things work.  I had seen two of the small bowls yesterday and while sitting in my hotel room last night, got to thinking about them and wish I had looked into them further.  I picked one up, wasn't priced, so I put it down.  Now I wish I had followed through on them and purchased them.

I went back to one place to see if it was where I saw them.  It wasn't, so I didn't feel like retracing my tracks from yesterday!

Quite frankly, I had enough antique shopping now!  This trip has just flown by, so I thought I'd call it a short day and veg in the hotel.  I left the flea market and took a drive to see if I could find some craft shops.  I did find them, but they didn't have what I wanted.  I stopped for lunch, homemade pork BBQ and picked up something to eat for dinner.  In my mind, if I just sit here, time will slow down! 

*Sigh*  Tomorrow I leave for home.  I'm all ready thinking about how to lug my giant PBN down to the car.   I repacked my trunk and put the back seats down, so I'm partially ready.  But I'm not ready to go home, wish I could stay a few more days!

You can always call in "not yet honey, not coming home just yet". Sounds like you had a marvelous time. I'm quite jealous and can't wait to "see" all you got.

Be safe going home ~ and make sure your PBN makes it safely to the car.
