Visit to Spencer

Since my bloggy friend, Pam, is visiting her mom in Sioux Falls,SD and I'm visiting my mom in Rock Falls, IA, we concocted the idea of meeting up half way in Spencer, Iowa at Sisters Mainstreet Cafe.

Meeting Pam in Spencer, IA
I arrived to find Pam with her airport sign!  We had some lunch at the cafe, shared stories, then headed out to explore antique shops on the street.

coffee and treats
We had to have some coffee!

And of course we had our cameras:)

Lots of fun finds in the shop.  I love this picnic basket.

All too soon it was time to say goodbye, and head back to our mothers.  It was a great trip and visit.  And contrary to my big brother's concerns about me meeting up with someone from the internet, Pam is NOT an axe murderer or otherwise crazy person:) 

Have a happy Thursday, and I'll be back tomorrow with more about my trip to Spencer!

    I was glad I had left my axe in the car since you turned out to be such a nice person..........

    I notice in your photo that the baker statue looks like a woman with a mustache.....did you notice that???

    Perhaps the heat has gotten to me.
