The town where I have the antique booth in the antique store will be having a Harvest Festival on the second (full) weekend of this month. The whole antique district and street will be closed to traffic and people will only be allowed to walk through. There will be booths along the street, food vendors and more! I hopped online today to order some autumn colored swags to decorate my booth with. I found two nice swags at the Goodwill store, but they wanted $5.99 each for them. That was a decent price, but I thought I could find some cheaper for just "deco" at the store. I succeeded! And my swag has pretty orange, yellow, red and rust colors. They were only $2.99 each and will serve the purpose I need. The ones at the Goodwill Store did not. Big win!! That was my big find today! How was your day?

I'm not sure if we will go or not. The big problem is parking and having to walk to the strip. Then if you buy something you will have to end up toting it around. But I will probably be there!!

Your booth sounds super nice. Harvest Festival would be fun. My day has gone okay. I made it to the pool and exercised. We're having much needed Autumn rain.

I do like it when they close streets to vehicles and you can walk without worry.

Yes, that part is nice. The problem here is that there is not much room for parking nearby!

I'm glad you found some inexpensive swags. We are in the midst of celebrating our 53rd anniversary. We had Chinese over the weekend; and today we will have pizza. Have a good day.

The Harvest Festivals are my favorite, but often too crowded. I am sure this year those will be crowded because of the very warm weather.

@kareng If there is food distribution it is all the time a big crowd.
