July 5 --arts and crafts and old car show

We went to an art and craft fair in Traverse City and also discovered an antique car show to visit. There were many visitors in both places so hopefully the vendors did a good business. We managed to come away unscathed but thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the goods on display. There were many jewelry booths that HW2 enjoyed visiting. She was looking for a pendant to complete a necklace that her sister had given her. Success, and it only cost $5!!!

The old and restored car show was excellent. It was fun to see a Mustang convertible like the one I used to own back in the 60's. Some of the cars dated back to 1911 like a lovely old Cadillac. It was fun to see a Frasier and some other cars where we had to look carefully to learn the make and model. I am glad that some people like to take care of and restore old cars. We even tried to buy a metal cast model Corvette for Jerry's collection, but they did not have the one he has been looking for. We tried though! It was fun to stroll through the many booths and inspect the lovely old cars.
