So that was our visit in Sumter. From there, we drove to two quilt stores (stay tuned). After that, we went to our motel where Donna would meet us the next day. I'll save that excursion for next time.
From Bundt pans to large green frogs to slide rules...and everything in between...
That sounds like so much fun! It would be fun to meet Donna, she's hilarious! We have worked on things together in blogland but never met in person and I'm waaaay over in Washington State so a bit far!
ReplyDeleteLove all your finds!

I wish I lived closer to Donna. We could have a blast. We're about 3.5-4 hours away from her. We are about as far away as you as we could get without floating in the ocean! Maybe we'll make it to Washington and Oregon some day. The blog makes us seem so close, but then again, it doesn't. Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteIt was a great trip! We would like to go back to SC, especially to see Donna! :)
ReplyDeleteIndeed!
DeleteAnd the last time you two visited I did not get to spend any time with Katie! You have let a secret out - you shopped before coming to Aiken!?! Love the green frog and vintage office supplies are always on my list.
ReplyDeleteYou didn't think we saved ourselves, did you? It was kind of fun/silly that I studied Craigslist yard sales and Google maps before I could find one on the way! I wish we could have spent more time there...and money!!! Our whole visit/vacation was one of saturation! Stay tuned...Ridin' the Ridge is coming up.
DeleteI love flower frogs and any sewing/needlework things. Congrats on the new blog and I will be sure to visit again soon.

The giant frog was an amazing find. Thank you for stopping by, and I'll see you again!
DeleteFun to find another Donna fan! She and I have met up and shopped many times now. I love the green flower frog, I don't have one like that in my collection so it's something on my 'lookout' list!
ReplyDeleteEveryone would be a Donna fan if they met her! That big ol' green frog is huge! I just measured it: 6.5" at the base. I can't imagine how big the vase would be that would hold it. Yep! I found a good one!
ReplyDeleteI love Donna too. She's a blast, but I've never met her either. Love your yard sale finds! Sometimes you can get some good ones (good vintage junk) and sometimes it's nothing but toys & newer items. You never know till you get there. I always try to hit all things local when I'm traveling.
ReplyDeleteI figured that since we were traveling, at least it was a place to stretch our legs. We were pleasantly surprised. Glad to see you.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I used a slide rule in high school. I hated that thing. I don't think I ever figured out how to work it correctly.
ReplyDeleteI never used a slide rule. I just find them fascinating. I have no clue how they work! Thank you for stopping by!
