Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy: The Online Diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother

Welcome to the online diary of a Central Oregon Grandmother (me) who is busy celebrating the positive portions of her everyday life ... along with her best friend husband (Cary). It is quite an eclectic diary and I try to do my best to incorporate a little bit of history into many of my posts. Your visit to our piece of American Pie is greatly appreciated. This chatty Kathy posts frequently, so coming back to visit often is highly encouraged.

Rednesday: Trivia Antiques Field Trip

Yesterday, I was in for such a treat. And, today, you guys are! I was thinking about you the whole time. Wait until you see all of the red things that I found at this awesome antique store in downtown Bend.

Thank you, nice lady, for letting me take all those photos of your shop. When I got home and looked in the mirror, it wasn't one of my better looking days. The toothpaste dribble on my sweatshirt didn't help matters either. Still you trusted that I wasn't a nut, and I appreciate that very much.

There are more posts of my visit to Trivia Antiques ... please make sure to take a look at them too: Trivia Antiques: The Inside
and Trivia Antiques: The Outside.

Plus, don't miss this one: Francine and Ami

I am submitting this post to Redensday, over at Sue's It's A Very Cherry World. When you are done looking at my stuff, please head on over there and see other red pretty things.

I don't know, I was afraid to touch it! I had to move a frame to get a better picture of it. I can call and find out though. It is really cool, isn't it?; January 19, 2011 at 6:39 AM

Happy Rednesday,
