Hidey Ho neighbors!
Well, we've had an exhausting week doing the Brimfield antiques shows and thought we'd take the time to confirm what's been a verbal rumour up until this point. Yes, we'll be having another get together (wash in) in July, and we'll time it with Brimfield!
The planned date will be Saturday, July 15th for the gathering. Yes, the Brimfield show will be running this day, but it will also be running for 4 days before this. That's when the serious shopping is done! If anyone would like to come in a day or two early and come with us to Brimfield, we have room in the car for a couple of passengers. We can always do a caravan of 2 or more cars if there are enough people interested! Friday is a good day since there is one new field with fresh dealers that opens that day, and the rest of the day can be spent picking through more of the show. We've found lots of goodies that were brought in mid-week, or missed the rest of the week, during these slower, more leisurely go throughs.
We can talk about this some more, but we thought we'd get the basic idea out there to see what you all thought. One thought for Saturday would be to have a good old fashioned New England lobster fest on Saturday. Yes, lobster! The details would need to be worked out, but as far as we can tell, the only thing we'd ask is that anyone wanting lobster would pitch in for the cost of the lobster. Typically, this is about or under $10. We'd get some salt potatoes and salad, shrimp, some chicken on the grill for those who don't do lobster..... Again, it can be discussed some more, but we wanted to get the basic idea out.
Let us know what you think, and here's a little something we got this week (see the pics we're posting in this thread).
Hope to hear from you,
Rich "perc-o-prince" and Chuck (p-o-p's other half)
