Duluth Survived Us!

We had a great time! took us 11 hours to get to Duluth.. usually takes 4 but we made a
few stops! Carol, Mary and Joyce in the second car said they felt like they were playing bumper cars with us cuz when im driving and see a sale sign LOOK OUT!

Quaint little shops in this historic school building in Grand Rapids
(sister Jana asked her husband to buy her this building..dang not for sale!)









one of our meal stops...

Crazy Auntie Mary kept us in laughing tears most the trip... 
gosh were our eyes red and puffy by the end of the night!


Jody remember these? we had them!

a few of my finds, which i needed really bad.. especially for
1.00 each. the tray maybe 2.00 

Stay tuned for next installment of Cobbler Road Trip !

enjoy your day!            jody

Cobbler Road Trip!

yep.. tomorrow the cobblers are heading out to the 35th Minnesota annual quilt show
in Duluth. we are spending the night and will be knocking at the doors bright and early Sat. morning! we all went a couple years ago and had a good time, stopping at every
sale along the way.. Daughter Angie will be taking care of my fur babes, so nothing to worry about except enjoying time with the cobblers and treasure hunting!
Look out Duluth, the COBBLERS are coming!
