Our plan was to head to a giant antique store in Denver called "Brass Armidillo." The place was seriously huge--We got there at about 11:30 am, and ended up staying until 4:30pm. That's five hours of uninterrupted antique shopping. We eventually were able to walk through all of the aisles and booths, and came away feeling like covering all that ground was a pretty major accomplishment. Sort of like the junker version of climbing Everest.
It was lots of fun, and there was a lot of ooohing and aaahing over the great vintage stuff. We also just about laughed ourselves silly.

Mike, earning his nickname of the day: "Van Pelt."
I was so happy to be able to spend the day with Lisa and Mike before heading off to the UK. It was a perfect send-off.

Looks like you had a great day with friends. Don't get "junking" but I actually have been to the Brass Armadillo.
It was a *fabulous* day, Tiff. I can't wait for a repeat of the marathon junking when you return to the states for good. In the interim, I hope your trip has been uneventful (always my fondest wish about travel), that you revel in your last expat months, and that you find your way back to CO in a happy and healthy state. As always, I'm looking forward to the next blog installment!
Sounds like a wonderful day!! Always fun to be with friends!
