Dear Corinne, How exciting! And right down my alley! I am unable to resist going to a few “tag sales” every weekend,
starting in the Spring! My granddaughter Tracy and I used to make our plans on Friday nights, writing down the
addresses and directions and then getting out early Saturday mornings! I’m so happy that you’re so happy! Now
if you will excuse me, I have to go order it right now! Love, Weeze.
