Saturday Drive and Some Prim Shopping

Dh and I had a nice day today.  We took a leisurely drive down Rte 28, through Middleboro, Lakeville, Marion and Rochester. I love that road because there is a lot of historical areas with 18th century homes and I enjoy looking at them and imagining what they are like inside.  We stopped at a couple of nice gift shops on our trip.  One was the Gingham Goose in Rochester which I love!  The owner has such lovely prim gifts and reproductions and the set up of her store is so gorgeous.  I bought a long iron hook to hang a period betty lamp that I have on, and a few placemats to make pillows out of.  Yes, I make pillows out of placemats. lol  I will show you a picture when I am done with these. I always have a huge wishlist when I leave her shop!  The next stop was the Ansel Gurney house in Marion. It is a nice shop in an 18th century home.  It has 11 rooms of this and that.  I didn't buy anything there, but it was fun to look around. On the way back home we saw another shop in Middleboro that has primitives and there was a sign in the window that said 40% off.  We are going back tomorrow I think because Dh was tired by the time we passed this one and a tired Dh doesn't make for a good shopping experience..lol.  I hope everyone had a great day today.
