Spring is Coming...

WALL-E is soaking up the earliest rays of the season, while Eve searches for signs of life; and finds them!

WALL-E plays around, trying to get Eve's attention with some dried flowers. She is touched, but continues to search for the first signs of Spring! As we all do.

And already we have a caterpillar taking over the garden!

Flea Markets

We are lucky to live in a small state that has a culture of weekday and weekend fleamarkets, for example:

BELVIDERE - SAT & SUN
BERLIN - THURS THRU SUN
COLUMBUS - THURS THROUGH SUN
DORCHESTER - SAT & SUN
EDISON - TUESDAYS
ENGLISHTOWN - SAT & SUN
FARMINGDALE - FRI, SAT & SUN
GILLETTE - SUNDAYS
LAMBERTVILLE - WED, SAT & SUN
MANAHAWKIN - FRI, SAT & SUN

VINELAND - FRI, SAT & SUN
WATCHUNG - FRI, SAT & SUN
WOODSTOWN - TUES & SAT
These are to name but a few! I'm sure there are other states out there that love to flea market like we do; but as a state, we are pretty serious about it.

Every weekend we get together with friends and head out to our local markets to search for hidden treasures and bring home fruit and vegetables. Once in a while, we are able to finish a collection we've started! Our friend Jill found the last pin in a series that she needed! The price was right!
If you enjoy looking for vintage Disney finds and love searching for new stuff as well, check your local flea markets, church bazaars and other weekly sales. The chances are good you'll run across a treasure!

Who Wears Hats? continued...

Send in your photos!

Brandy Leigh sent in these photos of her daughter, mother and herself sporting their Disney head gear. Don't they look great? It's nice to see that Brandy Leigh has started her daughter off on the right track!
Here's a pic of Lee of Disleelandia and his lovely wife sporting their Disney head gear.
Friend of the blog, Gaylin sent a couple of fun photos of her hats! I don't know what she did to deserve being put in the stocks.
Thanks to everyone for submitting their awesome hat photos!

Who Wears Hats?

Who wears hats at Disney?


All sorts of people. From the traditional Mickey Mouse Ears to the much more elaborate birthday cake hats, dinosaur hats and more; hats are surely a popular fashion statement at the parks.

So how do you choose just one?

Therein lies my dilemma! Head covering choices are endless. I go into the little shops and test out various models, all of which are awesome, and always wind up leaving empty handed. I envy the visitors I see walking around proudly bearing their hats triumphantly for all to see. They made their choice, and they are enjoying every moment of it.


On more than one occasion, I have regretted leaving a hat behind! At least we can say that we have photos of our modeling sessions. So what do you wear?
