A little antiquing

Friday 20 September 2024

   Quick breakfast and we were off to the Green Dragon Farmers Market.  My first time there and I couldn't believe how big it was and how much food was available. Spent several hours, made a few purchases and then it was lunch time. I found a seafood vender and ordered a fried oyster sandwich, Yum.  Diane finally located the pretzel stand and had a pretzel dog. We walked around some more until we covered the whole place (I think). Back to rescue Rudy took him for a nice walk before going out for dinner. I was hungry for seafood Diane found Kyma's seafood.  We started with a glass of wine, Diane ordered grilled scallops with mushrooms, and I got the seafood platter, everything was stuffed with crab, both were great, service was good, wine was excellent, and we were not rushed at all.

The Green Dragon is huge and no we didn't get through it all, we just made a good attempt!!

    I made honky eggs for breakfast. Then off to do some serious antiquing. First was Mother Tucker the most reasonably priced. Picked up two items. Lunch was next getting a recommendation from the antique store clerk; we went to Two Cousins Pizza. Diane had a wrap, I had salad with shrimp both were good. We hit three more stores. One the Oley Valley Architectural Antiques was quite unique.  The place was huge (3 buildings, we were in 1) and so was the merchandise.  Old bars, counters from drug stores, old pillars, stained glass etc. very expensive but interesting to walk through. If only we had a mansion and lots of money. 

   Back home burgers, wine and a long walk for Rudy

  Diane did a load of laundry. And while waiting she was trying to figure out what I did yesterday evening to our email account. One by one as we turned on email this morning everything back to 2019 was gone.  Open up email and just watch as hundreds got deleted. I didn't remember doing anything and we couldn't stop it.  Oh well, hope we don't need any of them.

 

Nostalgia for Brad!!

Then we were off for some more antiquing. First was Renninger's. The place is huge. We parked and just walked around the building.  It is only open Sundays and let me tell you it would take a good 4 or 5 hours to do it justice. It was lunch time. Diane found this quaint little place in Stoudtburg Village called The Village Cafe (not to creative) we sat down waited 20 minutes or so, listened to the guy beside us complain to the server about his food and then we got up and left. Place looked nice and had a nice menu, but nobody waited on us.  The next place was much better.  The Columbie Kettle Works, we split a wrap of turkey, ham and cheddar with black pepper bacon jam on it. It was delicious. The jam gave it a very unique taste.  And I had cup of seafood jumbo, oh yum. Then off to another one or two antique stores. Diane finally found a salt and pepper set she couldn't live without. 

   Back to the apartment leftovers for dinner. I took her car down to garage and walked back just around a mile. Good exercise!

The restaurant was nice and the food delicious!!

  Decided to stay home today and start organizing to get out here. Plus, it has rained most of the day. I texted the RV shop at 9am. Lunch came and went. We picked up the car, Diane went to the grocery store, and I went back to the apartment. 2:00 pm and still no word about the Moho. Called at 3pm no answer straight to voicemail. 😖 Finally received a text from the RV shop at 5pm.  Guess what!! Things didn't go as planned and the Moho did not make it to the paint booth😡😡😖on Friday and may not be done on Wednesday!!😞😩😢
   Wine for dinner!
