Summer Antique Fair


There were so many tempting treats in Healdsburg this weekend, and I walked away empty handed. What? That is not like me!


Fun. Colorful. But no.


Yes on this cutie! But where would I put him?


Wonderful old pieces.


Hmmm.


I almost had my wallet out.

Alas, the only item I saw that I really wanted was a small spice tin....for $35. Ouch. I don't think so. Oh, and there was the amethyst ring for $965. Right. Luckily, I don't go to antique fairs to buy; I go to look, and there was a lot to see.


The sole expense of the day was the spicy chicken hot dog, with crispy fries, that I happily devoured for lunch...the best deal I could find.

  1. The best part of antiquing is always the looking. I bet that ring was fabulous!

  2. When you said you left empty-handed, I thought "oh, I hope she didn't leave empty-stomached, not from Healdsburg." I'm glad to read you found a good lunch. As for the fair, you showed great restraint. Not sure I would have been so strong...
