The Alameda Point Antiques & Collectibles Faire was delayed a week due to unseasonable rain and though it was a bit light with less sellers and less buyers it was still a great show!
Here are some highlights seen through my eyes...
You might be wondering if I got anything...
Well,
My sweet husband found me the best glass float at The Pointe and said to me...
Happy Anniversary!
"It's cheaper than a diamond".

I love shopping vicariously through your eyes!! You are my texture gal!! That is for sure. I want one of the porcelain white letters, did they have a P?!!!! Love your new diamond. I am the same way, I would much rather have something for my home than a diamond, any time!!! kathysue
He does sound like a keeper treasure.
I can honestly say I have NEVER seen a show anything like that around me.
It was so nice seeing you at the Point. Congratulations on that fabulous FLOAT! You both found the best treasures in each other!
Happy Anniversary lovely friends!
p.s. Once again you have captured the culture of Alameda Point with your eye and amazing photos!
Love it!

Amazing photos. So so interesting. I loved looking at each one!
Thank you for this great tour of a market I have never been too! It looks fabulous and I love your float. Happy Anniversary! :)
Looks like you had fun. Happy Anniversary(to come)!
Happy Anniversary! I can't believe we didn't see each other there! Next time, let's coordinate! ~Delores
Fabulous! Love every single thing you have shown here. As an anniversary celebratory thought: research has recently found that when we look at things we consider to be beautiful, there is increased activity in the pleasure reward centers of the brain. Essentially, the feel-good centers are stimulated, similar to the stages of love and desire.” Lots of feel-good stimulation at The Point.
Wow! They had glass fishing floats!! Love them, of course! I really wanted to drive down for that, but I was committed to the Astoria Sunday Market. Will try to make it to the next one. It's 7 hours south of me. I know I need to bring my cargo trailer when I go!
And, love your anniversary gift! It's a beauty! :)

I love this type of post that you do so I can enjoy the event via photos since I don't live in Alameda anymore. Just wanted to stop by and say Thanks!
What a wonderful photo journey! I'm moving home Terri- I can't stand it any longer. (After Christmas)if I find a cool Victorian to rent. Wow those wine colored shutters. yumm
I love floats. There are some cool ones in the Antique store in Sunol. Very old and authentic. I just saw them this week-end. Very back of the shop on the left hand side facing out.
I can't stand it. The things you find. While it's always a pleasure shopping with you via your blog I can tell you that I'm tired and broke and there is no room to fit a thing more in this house!
That's for sure and don't you forget it!
