Texas Road Trip!

So the Texas road trip was quite an adventure. 23 days total on the road. We thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of it. From stopping at my favorite Trading Post in Quartzite to stock up on moccasins (a girl can never have too many), to spending a morning in Tombstone (it was so much bigger as a kid), to trying not to pet & kiss the cute "border inspecting" dog (she was such a beauty). 


Got to the big event, "Antiques Week", in Texas, set up our booths and got into the groove. That super Southern Hospitality spills out of everyone. Every morning we took back roads into our venue, saw our pals the donkeys and longhorns hanging out in their pastures of Bluebelles (another site to behold). Made wonderful new friends with our neighboring vendors. And the most dangerous thing of all... going shopping in the other antique booths. Using more self discipline than I've ever known, I controlled my buying. I don't NEED anything, but I wanted EVERYTHING. Just had to keep visualizing my husband's fury if I came home with it all...



There is next year you know?...
