We were watching the news this morning and they did a piece on things to do this weekend in the Tulsa area. One of those things was Vintage Market Days in Bixby. We talked about it and decided to go. What a great place! It had so many things that we loved...antiques, old furniture just waiting to be repurposed, crafts, music, food and so much more.
If the wind hadn't been blowing 40 mph I could have spent hours there. Dennis joked that someone should have bought a bunch of goggles and sold them at the entrance! The dirt was blowing like crazy. I saw one lady walking around with a mask over her face...smart cookie, that one.
We bought something fun for the front yard and some beautiful metal scripture sculptures for the wall. (Say scripture sculptures three times really fast; do it!) I can't for the life of me get the pictures of those to load on here. Grrr.
After we left the market we went to Genghis Grill for lunch. Our first impression was tending towards not so great due to the lack of attention we received from the wait staff. Finally, a great waitress took pity on us and took care of us even though we weren't part of her area. Verdict: amazing food! We loved it. We will definitely be going back there and soon.
Next...a stop at Target. What I would give to live near a Target. It is my favorite store. And, it has Starbucks right in it! Does it get any better than that? I ordered my usual-Salted Caramel Mocha latte. As soon as the young man finished making it and was adding the salt it dawned on me! I could have had an Eggnog latte! Next time, my friend, next time!
We came home and agreed that it was a wonderful day. And, that we need to do this more often. We are fortunate to have similar interests so we enjoy so many of the same things. I am already looking at the calendar and making plans. Yes, I think a second date is in the cards for us!
