"Road Trip"

Hello again,
Wrote a long blog yesterday, only to have the middle disappear into no where land! So am trying again today. Last week my hubby and I went on a non scheduled, no reservations road trip. One where you could stop and look and buy if you wanted too, without any time limit or have to get to somewhere at a certain time . It was fun, and I enjoyed it for the most part, except for the ladder part when hubby began his snoring like a freight train after the third night! :-)
Our first stop was for a late breakfast at a place called "Toast", you say, how appropriate. The help was very friendly and the food good, so our trip started out right! A bowl of Irish oatmeal with a cup of delicious fresh fruit and I was ready to roll, and find those treasures!!! I knew there were some out there, and I hoped to have fun in the hunt. We went into the town of Navato and it began! A couple of stops later and I had a beautiful embroidered table cloth and some old iron on patterns that you can't find anymore for doing some embroidery yourself. Back in the car and on the road again. We stopped at another small town of Petaluma. It was fun to look, and I did look, but no buys there, as didn't find anything that said "buy me", so on again we went. Our next stop was at Seabastopol. A nice little town, also known for it's apples and wineries. We went to the local antique shop, named Antique Society. We had been there before and it is big! I looked for sometime while the hubby went to check out the hotels. After looking for an hour or so, and finding some really neat rose plates, and a couple of poetry books, we left to get checked into our resting place for the night. We had stayed at this particular one before, beds are great, as well as the breakfast next morning. We dined at a local Mexican restrurant and the food was excellent. :-) Ah, those beds felt nice, and except for the upstairs room(above ours) being rather busy all night, we had a nice stay. After our breakfast, we were off once more. Stayed tuned. More later. Antique Rose
