Now we can talk about the prom at Zapp Hall, put on by the Junk Gypsies, and Cheryl and the great people at Zapp Hall. My new friend Nigel did wear a gorilla suit, commando underneath. He was certainly a hit with the ladies. A lot of the girls wore tutus and tank tops, some...Read More

An interesting thing I found out. If you get a ticket in Texas you can request “deferred adjucation” from the judge. I promised not to get another ticket in Texas (which I did not), and the ticket was taken off of my record.Read More

I did not want to show you, since you will be sad, but how cute is this little girl? She was snatched up first thing Tuesday morning. BUT, I did pick up some ex-votos in Long Beach that are amazing. They are from Mexico, and each one is a thank you prayer to a saint...Read More

8 days, almost 4000 miles, and more antiquing than even I can handle. We are home! Read More

Palm Springs, almost home! No time to stay and play, though, we miss our families.Read More

Night 3 at Zapp Hall. Last night we met Dave (or Armando), a singer songwriter who currently resides in San Miguel de Allende. He sang on stage between the bands and stole the show. We heard him sing “Blackbird” 4 different ways. Tonight he hung in the booth with us and was our personal jukebox...Read More

Day 3 at Round Top antique fair. Today we ventured a bit further out, and drove down the road a mile. There are many different “fields” where dealers set up, and each has it’s own flavor. This was like an upscale shopping district in Dallas. You could find a farm table for $4000.00, a bergere...Read More
