Thanks for stopping by! We transplanted Okie's have to stick together!
Glad you stopped by my blog, because now I get to follow you on your exploits. I could literally shop for antiques all the time. It's like an easter egg hunt. So glad to know somewhere that facillitates antiquing jaunts. I have always wanted to do that, but have no clue how to ship the stuff back or where to go etc. And as a fellow Okie, you sure have had an interesting life thus far – so far from home, wherever that may be.
