This is the last weekend of the Warrenton - Round Top and all other points around and between - of the Antiques Weekend Extravaganza!
And only the second time HH Noel and I have been out there this time...let me tell you...it's been HOT!
Anyhoo...we started the day by parking at The Little House on the Hill which is where I used to have a space probably 8 years ago. I always start out by thinking that I'd really like to do the show again...it usually takes maybe 45 minutes before I'm thinkin' ~ what was I thinkin'!?!
Anyhoo... we then instantly made our way to The Legal Tender Saloon
for lunch...
whereupon we ordered ONE (because they are so huge) Chicken Salad Sandwich on wheat. Sorry, no picture because the sandwich was instantly consumed by us. Along with Fritos, dill pickles and onions. Yum!
As you can see, they have a pretty extensive menu for the sort of wing-ding that Warrenton has become. I'm happy to report that the owners have opened up a full time restaurant right outside of La Grange where hopefully I'll have a chance to eat something other than chicken or egg salad since that's all I ever eat there.
Anyhoo, it was delicious! Yum again!

If
you've never experienced an Antiques Weekend here in Central Texas, you
might seriously want to put this twice yearly event on your bucket
list...it's multiple towns and miles of good, and I mean, really good
stuff! Plus some really really I don't know what, stuff...
Now, check out what I've got next for you!
Metal!
A concrete cement Rooster and Hen...I almost pulled the trigger on this one...$30.00!
I may regret this pass!
Gorgeous!
Junk jewelry...get 'er by the scoop-full!
Royal Copley...maybe fifty bucks for all of them...so cute! But, I resisted!
Hull Little Red Riding Hood, the rare one because of the lacy floral border, so the proprietor of this shop said...Only $295.00, BUT he'll let me have it for only $150.00...nope! Doesn't match my pocketbook or decor!
The next pictures are from one of my favorite places!
Yes, that's right! Dead People's Stuff!
Which a lot of it really is...I mean, right?
I am a sucker for succulents...just sayin'...
And conch shells...and succulents...
And deer skulls...and succulents...
Dead People's Stuff...yeah!
