Thanks for stop...Hi, Jen--<BR/><BR/>I am so glad to meet you! Thanks for stopping by and saying hello on my blog. I, too, went to the Country Living Fair (as you probably noticed from my blog). My friend & I didn't realize until Monday when we talked to others who had gone how lucky we were to have walked right up to the ticket line and gotten in without a wait on Sunday. Apparently, that was *not* the case on Friday & Saturday. But I'm glad the Fair was so well attended. <BR/><BR/>Aren't the McMaster & Storm girls the best? I feel so lucky to have them as "sisters in retail." I could've spent an hour trolling their delightful booth but for the dozens of other people trying to cram their way in, too! What fun. I'm thinking next year I may have to set up a booth, too.<BR/><BR/>I am really glad to have discovered your great blog and will be stopping by regularly to say hello!<BR/><BR/>--Abby from The BlissfulAbby Kerr Inkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952001814817975831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-30929790738376530692007-10-06T22:04:00.000-04:002007-10-06T22:04:00.000-04:00It sounds wonderful!

Kara and Darcy from McMaster and Storm are friends of mine and I say they have the BEST shop around!<BR/>I went to the Fair on Friday and I will say that is NOT the day to have been there! It took us over and hour and a half to get to our parking spot from 5 minutes away! The restroom lines were 1 and 1/2 hours long and the food was already selling out at noon. The response was just phenomenal! Kara and Darcy said it was better organized on Saturday and Sunday so be glad if those were the days you were there! <BR/>I found some fun stuff there and I didn't think the prices I paid for the things I bought was bad. Of course I didn't see nearly everything upclose because of the crowds. I know some of it was high priced but I was happy with the things I found. My favorited is a huge old picture frame I'm going to use in my new living room when the remodel is finished!<BR/>It's fun finding new blog spots through my favorites!<BR/>Jill FloryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-85450346487465590492007-10-04T11:55:00.000-04:002007-10-04T11:55:00.000-04:00I am so glad you got to meet Serena & Teri (The Fa...I am so glad you got to meet Serena & Teri (The Farm Chicks)!

We arrived early and there were no lines and we entered at the back. By noon, there were supposed to be 10,000 people through there. I can believe it. We left early because you couldn't get through the crowds. Neat things - high prices but I enjoyed it before it became to crowded. Next time, I think we should attend on Friday.<BR/><BR/>I bought one tin picture of a horse (love horses). We then went to the antique stores in Waynesville and Lebanon. Next week in Waynesville is the Sauerkraut Festival. Have you ever been to that one? Waynesville also had a neat fabric shop in town along with many other great store.<BR/><BR/>Show us what you bought.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04298920945871178648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36124766.post-71319700864532326372007-10-01T15:16:00.000-04:002007-10-01T15:16:00.000-04:00I think you look wonderful in that photo!
