Back from Vacay

Sigh. Back to work.

I had a great time though, we went down to the Finger Lakes - unfortunately it rained most of the time we were there, but at least they have some very cool (and giant) antique malls down there. I was going to show you the pretty 50s lace dress I got, but it sold within minutes of being listed.

We also hit up Sonnenburg Gardens, which is a wicked Victorian Mansion and park - it totally reminded me of my boarding school, Rochelle House, which sadly they tore down a few year ago to build luxury apartments (boo, hiss).

I made my Father In Law promise to build me some wooden green houses - seriously, how cool would it be to have these scattered about your yard?

Anyhow, the whole thing made me long for all things Victorian... especially the chairs....

... and the fountains....

.....sigh......
