Surprise Birthday Party(ies)!!!
Last Sunday we had a surprise party at the shop for my mother (she turned 80 on Monday) and it was a great success - she really had a good time!
Now we have to start planning for dad. His 80th will be this November 1st, and we'll try to schedule the party for the Sunday afternoon before (or maybe the Sunday after). His will also be a SURPRISE, and I'll keep you posted!

CRAFT SHOW UPDATE
Next Saturday, August 18th, I'll be set up at Barnes, WI - on County N between HWYs 27 & 63, north of Hayward - south of Iron River, WI. Then I'll be driving across to Ironwood, Michigan and spending the night in a cheap motel, before going to...
Old Victoria Museum, etc. on Sunday 8/19. Take U.S. 2 to Wakefield, Mich., then M-28 to Bruce Crossing, then U.S. 45 north to Rockland, Mich., then 4 miles south to the Old Victoria site - hopefully there are signs to guide you (and me).
Saturday, August 25th we'll be at the Cumberland, WI Rutabaga Festival, but not in our regular spot. We'll be on the east side of the street, and I think a little north of our usual location, under a store awning.
Saturday & Sunday of Labor Day weekend (September 1st & 2nd) Lisa and Jed will be at the Port Wing, WI Annual Fish Boil craft show.
More updates to come......... Being so busy with the new shop, we've been waiting and booking shows later than we have in past years.
In the shop things are going great. We'll be putting antique and collectable furniture on sale a bit later, maybe for our September sale). Also sometime in September we will be dropping to 6 days a week, but we still haven't decided which day of the week we'll be closed. More on that when we decide as well.

VISA & MASTERCARD - In the store and at shows!
Hi all,
We've taken the big step (for us, anyway) of setting up to take VISA and MASTERCARD again. We had done so for 13 or 14 years, but were forced to stop by increasing fees and more complicated procedures. But now it seems oh so easy -- we'll see.
But anyway, we'll be accepting plastic at craft and antique shows as well as in the shop.
I'll update the show schedule again when we book more into the fall.

Montello Daze - May 5th
On Saturday, May 5th I'll be set up at the craft show in Montello, Wisconsin (which is northeast of Portage), at the "Montello Daze" celebration. We normally go to the craft show at the Catholic Church in Montello on the Saturday before the Fourth of July, the one at Winnequah Park in Monona on the Fourth, and sometimes the August show in Montello and the November show in Brodhead. This year, however, we probably won't be able to make it to any of these, and Montello Daze on May 5th may be our only show in southern Wisconsin for the whole year. If you can't make it to this one, you can call or write at any time. Plus, keep checking this blog for schedule updates and changes.
Friday, Saturday & Sunday, May 11th, 12th & 13th we'll be at the WLUC-TV6 Mother's Day craft show in the Superior Dome in Marquette, Michigan.
More later...

Election results, and more
Hey everybody,
I won a seat on the Village of Winter Board of Trustees in yesterday's election. Here's hoping I can make a difference.
Last Saturday at the Farm & Garden show in Ashland was a pretty good day, and the breakfast was really good.
This Saturday (April 7th) I'll be at the craft show/ Easter egg hunt at the school in Bruce, Wisconsin (west of Ladysmith on HWY 8).
All of our U.P. friends should be looking forward to the Marquette show on May 11th, 12th, 13th - we'll be there.
I'll update again when we firm up more of our show schedule.
