A day to get the dust blown off me...part one

I had to get out of this house today. We have been inside so much, only going  out to do errands. Ive had it. Its fall here but around me it doesn't look it yet. So when I need a touch of autumn I like to go to my favorite town, antiquing. I managed to talk the man into going. So we took a nice country drive there thru the canyon. Got out and started to wander and could already see his eyes glazed over and bored lol. He saw a barber shop and decided to get a haircut so at least it wasn't a total loss for him. But I brought my camera and this is what I saw. That pic up there is a mural painted on the side of a building there...of Charlie Chaplin. This town used to be a movie town many yrs ago and Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm was filmed here along with many of Charlie's others. 

I just loved this Mummy. It looks like a skeleton that was just wrapped up in Vet wrap. He has his arms crossed over his chest like a mummy too. But they decorated him with Halloween jewelry for display in the window. Cute Idea tho.

And this one is hard to see, the darn glass was shiny no matter what angle I took this shot at. But its a giant crescent moon and I love it!

 

This is the front window of my favorite shop My Friends and I . They have a blog too I found out. http://myfriendsandiniles.blogspot.com/ I always go in there no matter what else I'm doing down in that town. See those dancing witches....I almost bought them, I just love those. But ......its big and doesn't fold. All I could think of was, more stuff to pack since Im moving soon,  so sadly I passed on it.

I loved this turkey too. Yea the photo is a bit fuzzy, hes not. But he was really cute. Again ...wanted it, didn't buy it....have to pack it if I did. 

Ive got a couple of these resin pumpkins big and small and I adore them. This one is perfect for Thanksgiving but.........not packing anymore stuff. 

And I ♥ this punkin! Its a mercury glass pumpkin, I love that stuff......but...it would be just another fragile thing to pack......sigh........so I passed on it too. This moving stuff sux.

But at the very back of the store they had a whole Halloween corner. I had to wait for a bunch of ladies to get outta the way. At first I thought they were just setting it up but they weren't. They were shoppers....in my way lol.

 More cute stuff on the other side of the Halloween corner. 

And the only thing I did buy. ...these bowls are smaller than my usual pottery ones but still useful. And they were half price so I got both for only $8. 

As you can see, if you remember my other blue pottery bowls, they match the ridges on those too but are blue and white. I love this old pottery stuff.

To be continued......
