Saturday Shopping....

 On Saturday morning early, my daughter Kathy picked me up.  We were going to do a bit of small business shopping.  We started here in Westfield , Indiana.  This is the Main Street Shoppes. Two stories of antiques and flea market booths.  I loved the way the building was painted.
   Another part of it, although we did not go in here.  I thought it might be storage.
  The owner/ operator of the business pulled up next to us in his cute car, with a painting of the business on the sides.  He said he can not hide while out driving this car. :):)
  I thought of many of you out there as I shopped. Here is a wonderful display of Pyrex dishes for you Ann and many others.  Good prices too.
  A nice little fire truck for Kris' husband Terry.  This truck was in great shape.
 Well who would not think of  Claudia and Shelia when they looked at this beautiful dollhouse. I did not even look at the price.
  Tons of old Christmas ornaments and decorating pieces. For Jann and Deb, who always seem to find the best of this kind of treasures. I know there are many more of you who treasure hunt and strike it big .
 Oh Mildred and other bloggers, this is your sign. LOL.  I laughed when I saw this,and pointed it out to Kathy, as she is a kitty-cat lover too. I did buy a couple things. I'll post more pictures tomorrow.
 Oh yes, my feet are killing me this morning, We walked that whole building, both floors. Then went to Carmel, Indiana and walked around and found a delightful consignment shop. More later.
  Blessings for a beautiful day where you are..right now we have sunshine and 38 degrees, going to be in the 40's . XO

    1. June, So good to hear from you. I did have a wonderful day with family. Saturday when I went shopping with Kathy, I wore my feet out. I just went along for the fun of sight seeing and eating out...as I rarely buy anything any more. Seeing olden things from my childhood was fun. Like a big radio my parents owned. Glad your thanksgiving was good too. Yes, let's rest our feet girl. :):) Blessings and a hug for Landon always, xoxo, Susie

    1. Hi Karen, I know you knew that sign was for your sister. LOL . Some things were great bargains and some were very steep in price. It was fun seeing lots of dishes from days of old...like some that used to come in soap boxes. Hope you are enjoying this lovely weather. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Doris, That is truly the bad/sad part...when I go to these places, I think to myself...do not buy anything, you do not need it and where oh where would you put it? LOL....then I feel very old indeed. Mildred liked the cat sign. :):) She's a sweet lady , as is her sister Karen of Lily Valley. Bless you, xoxo, Susie

    Neat place Susie !

    1. Jo, My daughter and I happened upon a man and woman, he was totally being a grump. My daughter whispered," The lady needs to take him home. " I could not help but laugh. Women need to shop without men and children...for peace of mind. LOL. I enjoyed seeing all the olden things. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie

  14. That doll house is amazing. I want to someday get a doll house, and wouldn't it fun to decorate it for the holidays? I hope your feet are not as sore today. If I walk for too long, my feet start to hurt as well. : )

    1. Oh Sheri, that dollhouse would be a cute Christmas decoration, wouldn't it? Yes, my feet took two day to stop hurting. I only take Tylenol for pain. I will not be walking that much any time soon. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

    1. Linda, That was a ton of walking. It's the standing more than the actual walking that hurts my feet . Of course concrete sidewalks are rough too. I am better but it took two days. Blessings, xoxo,love, Susie
