~ What's new this week ~

I don't know where the cleaning fairies were when I was on vacation, but they weren't at the store working. All the Christmas stuff that was left is put away, and the store is cleaned and looking more like spring.

I have not gotten anything new made within the last several weeks, with Christmas, vacation, and moving the store around, but we do have some great vintage glass items. We have added some vintage cut glass water glasses, water pitcher, milk bottles, cute juice glasses, and so much more.

If you are looking for unique cream & sugar sets, we have added several styles, along with cut glass, and USA pottery.

We also added 1999 Super Bowl Champion Denver Bronco Coke Classic 6 packs of coke. Bottles are full, and a great collector items for Denver Bronco Fans!!

Hope you all have a great day!!

~ Inspirational Quotes ~

I have a few friends on FB that share inspirational quotes, and since I enjoy them so much I thought that I would start to share of my favorites on a weekly basis.

I will post them each Wednesday, so check back to enjoy and if you have some you want to share, post a comment with your quotes.

John made it to the Denver Post. Not sure how it will come through here, but he is in the 2nd picture, wearing a black cowboy hat. He is standing on the fence talking with his best buddy.

The Speckled Goose

~ Back in Colorado ~

We are home from our long road trip. We had so much fun visiting family in Idaho and Oregon, and of course I went shopping. That was a lot of fun.

Apparently Haley thinks that we did not bond enough in the truck as she thinks that I should be holding her all day, but customers call. Maybe I spent too much time with her??

I got some BEAUTIFUL wool yarn that I am going to use on my dolls. I can hardly see them with it. I am so excited.

I also picked up a bunch of stuff from my sister's that she was storing for me, an oak table that was my grandmother's, a tea cart that was my grandfather's on my dad's side, my mom's cedar chest, and so much more. I still have to go through all of the boxes to see what is there.

~ Christina of Buttermilk Junction ~

Below is a picture of Christina of Buttermilk Junction in Junction City, Or, and me, Nancie of The Speckled Goose.


Our family is in Junction City Oregon, and I got to stop in and meet Christina in person. She is such a cutie. Oh, and Christina is the skinny one on the right!! =)

~ Road trip is going well ~

Our road trip is going well. Not too much bad weather, but we did have some blowing snow and icy roads coming through Wyoming.

We're in Oregon today, and will be headed back to Idaho in a couple of days, and then back home on Sunday. It sure is good to see family we haven't seen in a while.

Today in Oregon we have some fog and cloudy sky's, and I'll get to stop by a friends store to meet her in person.

Well you all have a great day. I'll get pics later.
