Weekend Plans

[Shada]

Just got home from another full day of antiqueing at local fairgrounds.

As always, I really enjoyed myself. This time picked up 2 signed original oil paintings. They are both 20' x 24', one in a beautiful matted frame.
I was looking at them wondering why they were so cheap. One was $3.00 framed, the other was $5.00, canvas only. So the dealer came over and offered them both to me for $5.00! Said it was obvious I liked them both. Of course I bought them both for that price! They really are nice paintings. Not sure what I am going to do with them, have no room in my house!

Also got a arrowhead for my nephew. Talked the dealer into selling me only one out of his boxed collection.
Then got a few Christmas gifts also. One was a pin of THE Ruby Red Slippers with wand... my sister is a huge Wizard of Oz fan.

Last year at this same show bought a plant. It didn't come up this year. I was so disappointed. Called a Lucifer Monbrieta. Unlike its name, it is a very pretty flowering perennial. My friend Lu amd I were looking at them today, speaking to ourselves about what we could have done wrong that neither of the plants we bought came back this year. The dealer asked us what we saying, she remembered selling us the plants last year. So we nicely explained neither plant had come back. She was super nice and she bagged up two plants and gave them to us! We were shocked, did not expect her to do that. Told her we don't expect her to give us two more.. she insisted and off we went, happy as two larks!

The day is ending as nice as it started... now I need to get outside and plant my new perennial!
