brimfield

photo taken from brimfieldexchange.com. my grandparents and mom used to talk about going to the outdoor brimfield antique show and how much they looked forward to it when they lived in northern massachusetts in the 60's. well, now i have taken their lead and i am going every chance i get. my husband, twin girls, brother and i went to the one that started on may 12th this year. this was the first time we have been on the first day of the show. they run from tuesday-sunday. what an experience it is! there are thousands of dealers with anything you can think of. we had so much fun this year! we bought a table from a a younger couple from brooklyn, ny. they had found it in lancaster county, pa. from an amish family. so cool that antiques embody a green lifestyle.
