Another beautiful fall day called for another scenic drive.

I’m sorry, but autumn in New England is hard to beat.

The air is crisp and the trees give us a splendid tableau of color.

It also means the last gasp of yard sales and antique store sales that my husband can’t drive by. This particular shop had auxiliary rooms made out of tractor trailer boxes and were filled with vintage horrors.

Ack!
😱

Wow.
Please note the base table of this lamp lights up as well.

Inside, my husband combed the shelves for treasure but thankfully came out empty handed.

I’d much rather view foliage.

Just beautiful. I always wanted a trip up through the New England area in Autumn, but it never happened!

I want that lamp and table. I’d do stuff to it, first, change the shade, add and subtract things, maybe spray paint… So ugly but so unique!! 😵💫😂

You need to stop posting paintings of New England autumns as your own photographs, no matter how beautiful they are!
The baby doll snap was a nice palate cleanser, tho…

We’re gonna get up there soon…I already have a lot of the places to visit accumulated in the form of brochures, maps, etc. Visiting here just fuels the fire more about making the trip happen!

Yep, those creepy dolls were like some of the ones in the artwork at that movie director’s museum in Armenia that made me think of you. For the rest of my life, when I see creepy dolls, I think of you and that museum.
