I think my mom and I will stay there 2 nights then head up to Maine for the remainder of the trip. Can't wait!!! Definitely have to stop at Armory Antiques...

The purple bottles are old bottles that used to be clear, but have some component in them that turns them purple when they're exposed to sunlight. I think they are only really old bottles, and only the clear bottles, but not real sure. Pretty cool!!Turners in the Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06055652530768336134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6643332223539296916.post-90272056877777431302010-06-28T21:18:48.185-04:002010-06-28T21:18:48.185-04:00surprised I didn't run into you - I spent the ...surprised I didn't run into you - I spent the day at the beach then cruised the art festival as well!Brittanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06087173198769138132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6643332223539296916.post-45549981306016099652010-06-28T19:13:57.563-04:002010-06-28T19:13:57.563-04:00I'm from RI...and if you plan on going again, ...I'm from RI...and if you plan on going again, let me know.
