I had a horse with springs just like the one you pictured. My sister and I got it when we were very young, like maybe 2 and 3. It lasted all the way to my baby brother who is 14 years my junior. He rode it for awhile. I'll be it lasted 20 years, and he was still going strong, it's just that there was no one around to ride it any more. His name was Spike, and he provided hours and hours of entertainment for the five of us. Thank you for the memory.

Hey Pam, I just signed up for your newsletter and to my surprise the first thing I read is about the Country Living Fair. For years I've pondered going to this fair, but I live in Canada. So with your inspiration from this post, my husband and I decided that a road trip across the border next year is gonna happen. Thanks for the inspiration.

Feel like road tripping to Cape Cod? I have a triple set of auditoriums seats, but metal base, not wood. Thanks for sharing your shopping adventure!

Love old aprons: have a few. Owls: I collected in the 70s so have a few of those too. I have a pastel green one so they were out there. I picked up a theater seat during a trip to one of the antique shops a couple of years ago.. Our taste runs in the same direction. Every time I clean my front closet and move the red plaid picnic /silverware carrier. I think of you. I won it when I sold Rubbermaid in a home party plan in the early 70's. Don't use it any longer, need to send it to you. Thanks for keeping us updated on your "finds" Missed the Country Fair this year.. but looking forward to going next year. Thanks for sharing your treasures.

I totally didn’t go to the CL fair this year! I have no idea why! I too have missed out by waiting to see if there’s something better. In case you don’t already know, Gurley candles shine up very well with an old pair of pantyhose! I bought several and I’ve used this trick on all of them! I love your posts! (But I kinda don’t get the owl thing!!)

OMG! I was just reading Susan Branch's blog and she has that same owl! Thought it was funny seeing both in the same day. LOL
