scenic route to cloverdale

husband had the great idea to go & visit my best friend

I love when last minute plans just work out

in fact, they seem to work out better for me!

we had all day to burn before our friends were off work

(because it was a wednesday after all)

so we stopped @ an antique mall that simply looks like trains

off the side of the freeway

passed 'em a million times, finally stopped

not bad but not the best - did find a couple of goodies

then we browsed downtown petaluma for a while

LOTS of antiques, not much mid century

in fact the local thrift store was the best - thrifty hippy

then if was time to keep heading up 101 to our friend's house

enjoyed some b.b.q & rainbow cupcakes

and called it a very good nite.
