Our original goal was hit places we missed (or places were closed) when we passed the first time, but the late start put a damper on the plan. The weather reports were continuing to call for snow, so we determined to press forward to get home. However, after three hours of driving, we had to stop.
We stopped at Wildwood Antique Mall in Rogersville, MO. This was a nice break from the drive, and we were relieved that the one we chose was a really fun place to shop. There was a cat sleeping in a chair at the front door. The booths were very organized and put together cute. The wife is a sucker for anything that is pleasing to the eye.
The prices were actually very reasonable. As we wandered through the store, we kept finding things that peaked our interest. The wife found a jug with a chalkboard strip painted on it. She sent a photo to her sister, whom approved. So, we did wind up buying that.
Then my wife found an old step-ladder. This is something that she is constantly looking at while we are shopping. Usually, they are painted and very unstable. This one was not painted and stable as a rock. When we found it, I did not even ask if she wanted it. I just picked it up and assumed it was going home with us.
We finished looking at the stuff (the shop was a great trip back in time) and left. We were both glad we decided to stop. However, once we hit the road, we were tired and determined to get home before it got too late into the evening.
Until next time... Happy Hunting!
