HOME SWEET HOME

HELLOOOOO
Afternoon Prim Folk,  hope you are all well this fine Sunday...........I am happy to be home, made it safe and sound from our road trip, always fun to go on but nice to come home.  Very hot here back  in Winnipeg, yooza!! got in the house, turned on the air conditioner  and now catching up on your news, doing laundry and unpacking.......Bought some treasures, didn't buy many antiques, found them pricy, also bought  some prim goodies in a neat gift store.  All in all was a great trip, beautiful scenery, so many pretty lakes, saw deer, swans, bald eagles and left a deposit in a few casinos, oops, but also won, yey!!!  Bought some grocery's, fun looking in the grocery stores, many items we don't carry, so  had to purchase some of this and that.   Well, we are home for the night then back to spend more time at the lake, might as well enjoy, hot weather this week anyway, I do  want Fall to come badly, cooler weather come on..................Wishing you a great week ahead, Blessings Francine.

  4. Francine! So glad you had a great trip! Down fall to Red Wing is that they are spendy...lots of eye candy though! OLM

  6. I still can't believe you were so close to me! Where was the Prim shop? I need to get to one! If it is between Red Wing and Duluth I can make it! Let me know the town if you remember ok? Red Wing is beautiful, Love the old Pottery Place, haven't been for awhile cause I think they are over priced. Enjoy your lake time!
    Be blessed,

  7. Welcome home ... I think I would have had to buy one of those really large crocks, have a couple of smaller ones. Hope you remembered to wave to Mama Pea.

  8. Hey Francine, $50.00 bucks not bad my friend...Just look at those wonderful crocks lined up on that porch! I just knew you would return home with some great finds! Enjoy your time at the lake, Fall is closing in, thank goodness...greetings from Maine, Julie.

  9. I'm laughing because I love to look around grocery stores when I travel. I like seeing the different things they have. I thought it was odd but now maybe it's more normal than I thought ;)

  12. Wow drooling over those crocks, but soe of the look huge. Lake Superior is awesome and cold..at least in Michigan. So glad you had a great trip, but sad that the casino was a tight wad. Hot and humid here too...spent the day plaing in the river, Janice

  13. Awesome trip and great treasures as well. You went to Red Wing!!! that is my old stomping grounds and Duluth, beautiful city! I miss these favorite spots in the North Country, been living in southern Missouri for 20 years now but born and raised in Northern Wisconsin (Eau Claire). Thanks for sharing your eventful trip, love the crocks, my largest is a 6 gallon Red Wing with wood handles on the side.
    Love your blog, Connie

  14. You're getting closer....(to Nod, that is!!) Welcome home though!!! Sounds like/looks like a fun trip....Love the old crocks.... From what I've heard, Red Wing and Duluth are both pretty spendy....touristy.... But I don't get out much.... Grocery stores, eh??? Actually, I have fun in them too - although I avoid them here and make Mr. Crow go... ;-) Have a great new week ahead!! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

  17. sounds like a busy time away and some great goodies.
    It is always great to be home again we are heating up a bit but I am not looking forward to fall. Shorter days and after fall comes the worst part of the year.

  19. My spouse love the pottery place and my mom took me along there back in the fifties when they actually made pottery there. Duluth is a goo place to escape to when it gets really hot. The "Air Conditioned City".

  20. Oh, I am so glad that you had a wonderful trip but yes, it is always good to get back to a home base (wether it is your residence or the lake place...as long as it has your stuff!).

  21. Hi, Fran,
    Glad you are home safely from your wonderful vacation. Love your new yellow ware bowls. I wouldn't think that such a sweet little doggie could look so disgusted! I'm with you, I hate this hot weather and can't wait for fall...
