I was asked what I enjoyed the most about going to the Lucketts Spring Market…

~ ~ and my answer (according to the “questioner”) was indicative of me . .

Seeing and being with great friends of course . . . and then the shopping!

However, of the thousands of people attending . . shopping was definitely primary!!!

Kim (Savvy Southern Style) and I for some reason thought that the Market opened at 9 a.m.

~ ~ so with hubbies in tow, we left our hotel at 7:15 a.m. to drive to Lucketts.

We got a great parking spot. In the Community Center . .

~ ~ much of the grass parking was under water from the almost 5 inches of rain they received.

So after 2 hours of “hanging out” before the Fair opened . . we discovered wonderful booths.

Rows and rows of booths . .

Lots of various displays . . .

And something for everyone . . . From beautiful beds . .

To magnificent doors . . .

Even the “hubbies” perused the many antiques and vintage wares . . .

I must say they were great sports!!!

Beautifully appointed booths such as Kristen’s and Karen’s . . .

Was admiring the trophy lamp and chair with that gorgeous bird pattern fabric.

Great painted furniture . . .

As soon as the gates opened, many standing in line headed directly to Marian’s booth!

And after almost 5 hours of being at the Fair . . .

We found these guys . . . sitting on the bench (would that be the “husbands’ bench?) . .

~ ~ Patiently waiting for us to complete our rounds of the booths . .

At this point . . we decided that they deserved a great lunch.

It was a beautiful day of great friends and shopping. . .

~ ~ what more could you ask for!

I was so busy taking in the many beautiful things there . .

~ ~ that I realized I did not take as many photos as I should have (bad blogger) !!

Watch for some great photos of the Lucketts Fair over at Kim’s. . she took lots of pictures!

Have a most wonderful day!!!
