What a gorgeous weekend (and a tad hot on Saturday) for Canton shopping. Cliff, Roni (my mother n law) and mom all met in Canton on Saturday for a weekend in Canton. Talk about crowded... It definately was that and quite not for November 1st. But we had a great day of shopping and looking. Mom and I even got lost from Cliff and Roni towards the end of the day on Saturday. So note to self in the future have walkie talkies avalilabe when cell phones don't work. Again what would we do without our cell phones?!?!?!
We stayed the night right by the Mountain at Long Hollow Hotel. Cliff was a little leary of the place driving up but I informed him it could be too bad with all the ritzy women that stayed there 12 weekends out of the year.. We were staying in the Timberwild room.. Decked out in animal print, lions, tigers, giraffes, elephants none the less. I will say it was clean and the shower was nice and hot. We actually stayed in the room for dinner and ate a turkey sandwich from the fixings Roni brought with her. It was delicious and hit the spot after a day of walking and in the sun. We decided to go ahead and hit the mountain before the Texas vs. Tech game. It was so pretty walking around with everything lit up with strings of lights, live musics and basically walking in a mountain. We made it back to the room for the disappointing game, but it was nice to kick back too.
Sunday came quick and we found a few more good deals we couldn't resist! Cliff and I negotiatied with the iron man for 4 pieces which we were both excited about. We got a Christmas tree, Large rustic cross, horny toad and armadillo!! Woo-hoo!!! Roni hit the jackpot when she found a purple martin bird house for Bobby and Darlene.. Especially considering they are so hard to buy for.. The weekend extravaganza came to an end around noon. Cliff and I actually went back to the AC marketplace and met my mom since she really couldn't leave b/c of a house showing in Greenville at 4:00. So we had lunch at the Trolley Cafe and then hit 20 to come on home.
I found several great vendors and am going to share!!!
