Still wasting time waiting for the junk emporium antique store to open, we strolled the Four Corners section of Tiverton.
.

.
It’s a lovely little area.
.

.
Quaint…
.

.
And charming.
.

.
Naturally, my husband found a wagon.
.

.
Which was outside a gourmet cheese shop.
.

.
We were on our way home and I had a cooler in the back of the car with frozen ice packs.
Let the shopping begin.
.

.
Inspired by Doris Duke’s pets?
Maybe, but I still passed.
.

.
Hmm…
No.
.

.
My treats….
Local cranberry blossom honey, French herbed cheese, Apricot dark chocolate..
.

.
Yum.
Heading back to the crap shop antique store, we passed a gorgeous church.
.

.
But even after wasting two hours waiting for that stupid place to open, it didn’t. And my husband left Rhode Island without the BB gun and sputtering about missed opportunities.
.

.
The windmills are straight.
The telephone poles, not so much.
It was an uneventful trip home until we hit Boston traffic. That’s enough to ruin anyone’s day.
.

.
And to make it worse? My husband took the wrong tunnel exit …
.

.
So we spent an extra half hour trying to reroute.
As soon as we got home?
.

.
He went out to his happy place while I unpacked.
.

.
As you can see, I had help.
.

.
It’s nice to be missed.
.

.

That is such an odd place not having hours posted or a way to contact someone. Maybe the shop is a hobby for them?
Yes, cats and their box-like structures. 😀

It’s definitely more of a hobby shop than a profitable business. She’s probably a hoarder who needed more space and an excuse not to throw it all out.

Oh welcome home Mum! Love the sound of all your treats. And yep as soon as we’re home – the lawn needs mowing. Your mower looks the business though.

Cats love suitcases. I’ve taken the wrong tunnel exit, and the idea that you can quickly get back to where you were or where you want to be is completely lost on the Boston road planners.

It’s always a nightmare. We should have gone around since we weren’t in a hurry…

Charming for sure. The cheese condiment sounds delicious. The cat where he’s not supposed to be, no surprise.

Wow, can’t believe that “antique” shop didn’t open. I’m thinking a very curmudgeonly old woman only opens when she feels like it, lol. Nice shopping spree, that cheese topper looks awesome, honestly anything with Grand Marnier will be 😉

I thought for sure you were going to say your husband bought the wagon, hitched it to the back of your car, and towed it home.

Aw, love the cat photos. And some of the best apple cider caramels I ever had were from New England (Lake Champlain chocolates). Great choice.

You know, you could have packed the cat in a smaller suitcase. That one’s overkill.
