Day 2 Road Trip

Day 2 turned out to be a fun day. We slept OK, but are upgrading to a Best Western tonite. We are not in a drive-by, assault area!!! We started out the morning going to Monticello Mall. It was beautiful...I didn't find as much as I usually do, but managed to find some treasures. I bought a wire cage from http://A Thing For Roses , and just loved many of the other spaces. There are so many good sellers there. We spent a couple hours there and headed off to the Stars Malls in the Milwaukee district. Didn't find too much . Sellwood is not worth going to anymore. I hate to say that, but it's all cafe's and bookstores. Sorry Sellwood....The weather was fabulous on our drive south to Salem. We thought Aurora was worth a stop, so we pulled in and visited a few shops. They are nice stores, but way too primitive for my taste. We un-hooked the trailer and scouted out downtown Salem to see if it looks good. There are a couple of thrift shops and antique stores that may be promising..

GRRRREAT Lion...it's plaster, but so cool... It may not make it to the store..





Cute hand made bag from one of the sellers at Monticello

I'm posting two pages today because I screwed something up with loading the pictures....
