A VISIT TO MEXICO

 Today we went all the way to Mexico.  This

would not be the country of Mexico but

rather the little town of Mexico, MISSOURI. 

 There is a wonderful antique shop there in an 

old Coke Plant (yes, the soda Coke). 

 It is only open on Saturdays and sometimes

 on Friday. We took a few moments to 

drive around

and see some of the old houses:

This was the side view:

I love seeing the flowers in the yards.

This home was amazing:

Just look at all those angles!

This house below had a wonderful tower.

I can only imagine the colors it could

be painted:

An amazing tower:

And this house below is more

English Tudor style but I have

always loved it:

We also stopped in a tiny town to

take a spring peak at a

Victorian house there that I have

taken photos of before.  This is in

the town of Auxvasse, Missouri. (below)

Well, the question is did I find any treasures

on this trip?  Well, yes indeed I did.  I found

some purple transferware which I have been

looking for and trying to collect.  So at the

Coke Plant Antiques I got all these pieces

which means 65 pieces for $100.00.

I am thrilled!

I do recommend this shop especially for 

antique clocks!  They have ever so many!
