Getting done with a 5 day babysiting marathon and hope to have some days off!

 

Going to your pages now.

Good morning! I am just a searcher and collector, Being an imported Brit - American antiques are a new learning curve for me. Loved your pics. Where is Bethania?

Simply "adorable" Yorkies! Look at those babies! Aww...

Hi Bev,

Thank you for your sweet welcome! So happy that you posted. I'm in the process of adding more to my profile. I'll be doing that today. Seems to be a great bunch of people on here!

I'm looking forward to being a part of this great community!

  The only thing I can think of is that the train was a large original photo someplace, and the man from a later era stood next to the picture and had himself photographed beside the train.  That is Benny Goodman and Judy Garland was rehearsing for a concert at Robin Hood Dell in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, in August 1943.

Hi, Bev~ If your Yorkies are really trained you are a better woman than I am. After 16 years our Fresca was good at leaving puddles any time she was mad at us. We were away too long, puddle. We ignored her, puddle. You get it. Anyway, you will live through the teen years and there is a huge light at the end! Our baby is 29 and she is a delight. Thank goodness we decided not to kill her, although it had been tempting. OK, vampire fan, did you ever watch Dark Shadows? I think I'm a "tad" older than you, but it was my favorite after school pasttime for a while. How wonderful that you've followed your dream and are a fulltime antiquer. I found your book, too. Kudos!!! You are one accomplished lady! Nice to meet you, too! Barbara

Hi, Yorkie lover!!! We had one for sixteen years! Anyway, welcome to Peanut Butter Glasses and Swanky Swigs. I see you are published, but as I can't find your name I have no idea who you are and what you've done. Let us all know! Barbara

Ah yes the Kane County Flea Market. I have fond memories-unfortunately it ain't what it used to be! And the area around it, especially downtown St. Charles is no more for antique fanatics such as you and I. Its now all sorts of boutique-y shops. My husband and I took a road trip there two week-ends ago and boy were we disappointed. Same goes for Long Grove. All the great stores I used to inhabit are gone! Have to go farther afield now but that's okay,too. Once my husband takes his early retirement in Jan. we'll be taking more road trips. May even get down your way.
