Saturday we read in the paper about a Christmas Festival at one of the antique stores in Old Town, Pocatello. We like to have even a small 'outing' on Saturdays so we decided to check it out. Here we are with Santa at the store! They had yummy cookies and hot apple juice also!
They began in the first floor of an old hotel. They have expanded into the basement and upstairs. It is pretty neat, they took down all the plaster and strips of wood and just have the frames of the rooms upstairs. Each vendor has a 'room' for their wares - I did purchase a boxed book - Tom Sawyer - illustrated by Norman Rockwell - for 6 dollars - the sign said "make an offer" - so I offered 5 dollars and the young man asked if I would pay 6 - since I had it, I did. At home I checked on Amazon online and the same book is selling for $60.00!! no I'm not going to sell it. Fun outing!
