Some Saturday plans fell through so the hubby and I decided to hit a favorite antique shop. I have been eyeing a stereoscope for over a year. They aren’t exactly the same price as a loaf of bread so I’ve been putting it off. But, if I still want something for that long then I can safely assume it isn’t an impulse buy that will be regretted! It was worth the wait. The store owners dropped the ticketed price by $15 and threw in 6 cards to use with it. Momma has a new collection to indulge in!
The unexpected surprise came on the drive to the store….there was a fair called Swords and Sabers that is a mix of vendors and displays for steampunk, goth, pirates, Victorian, vikings, Dr Who….you name it. I had been once before and it is a pleasant Saturday afternoon walk.
We called my youngest son and he met us there. He is the guy behind the shield.
He likes this kind of stuff (though I suspect he’d like it more with friends and not his parents).
Is there a plague doctor in the house?
Cap off the event with a FREE hay ride. Yup. Free is good.
