ATLANTA COUNTRY LIVING FAIR 2011

I’m settling back in at home after a week in Orlando.  My husband attended a conference so G and I tagged along for a fun trip to see Mickey Mouse and friends.  We got back home on Saturday night, and Sunday morning I decided on a whim to drive over to Atlanta for the very last day of the Country Living Fair. It was also race day at Talladega, which is right on my way to Atlanta.  Even that couldn’t keep me away from the Mothership.   I knew I couldn’t stay away this year.  I took the backroads to avoid traffic and arrived at Stone Mountain Park at 2:00 on Sunday.

 

The Fair ended at 5:00.  Talk about just in the knick of time. 

 

You know that saying about the early bird getting the worm?  Well guess what?  He also pays full price for it.  The late bird gets the SALES!  Those vendors were so tired by that point that most of them were ready to wheel and deal with me just so they wouldn’t have to pack up their stuff.  It was great! Everything I bought was at least 25% off, some was 50%. 

 

I love a good deal. 

 

So, here is a little collage of my photos from the day.  No explanation needed, except for maybe that potato/popcorn/boxwood combo displayed in the tray.  What was that about?  Certainly an odd pairing, but I kinda liked it!  Gotta love the CL Fair! 

 

Did you go?  What did you buy?  I’ll share my purchases later after I get everything unpacked from a week in Mouseketeerville.
