Riverbend Antiques... Ron "Catman" Bellomy... {Cool...Cat...: ) } oh my...'The Journey'...: )

As I was headed Home...from my Amazing...Botanic Garden Get Away...

and... Lovely Stay...in Davenport...at The Hotel Blackhawk...

I was encouraged...by the young man...at the Coffee Shop...to check out...

'Riverbend Antiques'

He said...it was one the Largest Solely Owned... Antique Shops...in the Country...

I Believe...that is True!

Holy Smokes!

I arrived early...and waited....

I thought about heading home... but...after window...peeping...

Jethro...and I decided to stay...put...: )

I'm so...Glad we did!

What a Journey!

I Totally...Clicked...with Ron...

I gathered...some Darling...Soulful...Treasures....

A Big...Chandelier...

That...Awesome Victorian...Chip Carved  Mirror...

{a Gift...for Mark...for Helping...so Much...at The Tag Sale!}

and...The Gnarliest...Worn...Velvet Covered...Organ Stool!

oh my!

But...The Best....'Treasure'...was meeting...The Catman...

He is such...a Soulful...Man...

 Tells it like...it is..

a Straight...Talker...

I...Like That...!

He is also...a Huge..Animal...Lover..

I Love That!!!

yes...we Hit It Off!!!

He took me through his Buildings....and Beautiful... Hibernian Hall...

 Ron...refers to it... as his...

'Man Cave'!

Oh My...

I went up...on the Choir Loft...and gazed...

It was...Incredible...

On his brochure... it says..."250,000 Items... in 4 Historic Buildings..."

oh my...

{The Buildings... all date...from the mid 1800's... oh my...

Filled with...Soul...}

Ron also... took me for a private tour...of his...Incredible...Home...

What a Gift...

He has walls...covered...with his...Darling Daughter's...Photos...

She is 15...and The Apple...of His Eye...

{as we visited... listening to him...Sing her Praises...

reminded me...so... of another...

Wonderful...Father... I once...knew...

with tears in my eyes...I told him so...

What a Gift... he is...to her...

He sees it...the other way...around...

Trust...Me...

I Know...

He...is...the Best Gift... a Daughter... could Ever...Have...: ) }

Yes...

This...trip...was an...Amazing...'Journey'..

These...Old...Gnarly...Grungy...Soulful...

Treasures...

sure...

have been a Blessing...

in my...life...

and...have taken me...to some of the most...

Wonderful...Places...

and...Put the Most...Beautiful...People..

on my Path...

When you get to Davenport, Iowa...

Stop in...and see 'The Catman'...

Tell him...

We All...Enjoyed...our Visit....
"Leftovers Antiques Home Mercantile" Booth
 

These Lucite Columns...were...Gnarly!
Loved them!
You Never...Know...what you may see...
at This Awesome...Show!

This is a poor image... but...The Worden's...had an Absolutely....Stunning Booth!
The Gorgeous Copper Finials...were priced at 3800. each... {That...was a Steal...on those Beauties!}
I Love...how they Blend...Victorian...Architectural... Primitive....Industrial...and Fragments....
Their Booth... brought Tears...to my Eyes!!!
It was...
Simply...

The rest of the images...are of The OVER  The Top...
Blackhawk Hotel...in Davenport, Iowa...
Oh My...
They just had a Multi Million Dollar Renovation...
It was built in the Early 1900's...
and they did an Outstanding Job!!!
It's a Strong...4 and a half...Star... Hotel...
The Food... is... Incredible...
and...the Service...was...Great!
 

Oh Yes...
I could have just...Lived There...
It reminded me... Much...of a Little....Opryland Hotel....
oh my...

Ceiling... Stained Glass Medallion....

I about Dropped... when I saw my room...
it was a Suite...
3 Rooms!
a Big...room...
with a Stocked Bar...
and
Fridge...
and Sitting area....
then...
 

A Huge...Bedroom...  with 2 Queen Beds...

The Show...Went On!!!
What Amazing... People...
Bless Their Hearts!
and...walking through...
you would never know...
the Huge Mountains...they all....Climbed...
oh my...
My camera...slipped out of my hands... as I was leaving...
Hit Hard....on the Concrete....
and I didn't know...until that night...I had lost over half of my images...
I was Sick!
{Ed and Bud...will be Thrilled... : ) }
I had a Lovely...time...
and was so...
Inspired..: )
but...I was hurting...
and could only take...a couple of hours... there...
but...it was worth the drive..
and...I Soaked in... The Beauty...
even tho...it was a short visit...
I headed Home...and met up with Bud and Renate...in Davenport, Iowa... for Supper..
Bud had seen a program about The Blackhawk Hotel...
on PBS...
so we enjoyed a FABULOUS Supper there...
It was an Incredible...Hotel...
we decided to stay the Night!!!
My room...was Over the Top!!!
Wowza!
Check it out!!!
{It's a Four Star Hotel All The Way!!!}
Then...

The number I heard....was substantially... below our goal...
but... I knew we did our Best....
I said...it was disappointing... but...
'It Is....What It Is'...
: )
The Sale...was Truly... about the Journey...
I purchased a few...little pieces of Jackie's Jewelry...
and wore them...to The Botanic Garden Show...
She was such a Yard Bird...I thought...I'd take a little...of her...with me...
She would Have....Loved...This Show!!!!
: )

I about... Dropped!
{Glad I was sitting....down..: ) }

I was SICK!!! when I opened them...
lost...over half of them....
I had taken....
This is the Only...image I got of Michael and Ed....
{ Leftovers... Brenham, TX. }
Their Booth... and Scarlett Scales { Franklin, TN }were my FAVES... {Make No Mistake... EVERY BOOTH...was Over the Top!!! {Loved...the Worden's... Booth....as well... }
But...Scarlett...Louie...and The Boys...are like...Family...  so...I may...be a bit...prejudice...: )
{Tho...I heard Many Folks...comment... on these Booths... as I was snapping images...}

The Day...that...lasted a week... : ) Oh My... Life...'is' a Highway... : )

As Jethro...and I...were Flyin' down the Interstate...this eve...

I reflected...on the Day...

It seemed...a Week Long...

How...in the World...did we Cram...Soooo Very Much... into a few hours?

It Was An Amazing....Day!!!

Holy Smokes...

Cindy and I... were Drowning... in Folks...

The Estate Sale...was PACKED!!!

{It was her... Estate...we were settling....}

: )

Peg...

wept...

as did...Cindy....

I can't tell...you...how...Soulful...

This 'Journey'... Was....

I think...we All...know... what a Loss...losing her...was to us...Earthly...Folk...

: )

Even...tho... we had never met...her...

Face...to Face...

somehow... we... knew...her... well...

: )

Had a Lovely...visit...with Jackie's Daughter... Melissa...

at the end of the Sale...

She... is...I Think...

Her Mother's... Daughter...

: )

After...I left...the Sale...

 I Flew...Home...Threw...clothes...in a bag....

Told John...I was sorry...for leaving him..in a Mess!

{I haven't been...'Home'... for a week!}

But...

I was Heading to Chicago!!!

{Nothing... was Stopping Me!}

The...Other Way....Around....

It was a stressful... day yesterday...

in my....tiny...corner of the world...

for so many reasons...

and it was a long one...

Had...a lot...spinning through my....head....

It was late...when I visited with Peg....

started... to bed...after our visit...

I  was... hurting....

Inside...and Out...

{that's when the enemy...Loves to Play...}

What he didn't foresee...

is...my Faith...

Yes...I am hurting...

but... instead...of being totally knocked...to the ground...

at the end...of the day...

I Stood Up!

Through My Hands...in The Air!

Shouted to The Lord....

and...Demanded...Him...

to Take Over!!!

I'll Fight....Every Battle...

With Him!

With....Him.... 'for' Us...

Who...can be Against Us....

Yes...I came up...Swingin'!

Then...woke up this morn...to yesterday's news...

about Boston....

Again... I have Faith....

Choose...Not....to watch any more of it...

I Pray...for all of the Beautiful... Bostonians ....

but...refuse...to let the news...give.... the evil... Fuel....

I know...the perpetrator.... will be caught.... and dealt with....

and... The Hand of God... is with...

those...who Suffer...

What I didn't write about...yesterday....

were...The Angels....

: )

Bud...has been a Whirl Wind!

Cindy and Tom....

Helped and Helped...

Bart...and his Family...

brought tables....

Liz and Nick...have been such...help...over the last many days....

Even tho...Liz and Nick...had been through...so much... with Miss. Scarlett...

I was surprised to see...Nick pull in...at the estate...

late...in the afternoon...

Those Kids...had little rest...yesterday...

and...their Hearts... were strained....

I asked what he was doing there...

{I was shocked...}

He stood in the door... and said...

"I'm here..to help you ...: )"....

I said....

"You...need to be Home... with that Beautiful...Child...

Snuggle....Kiss and Hold Her!!! and watch Sponge Bob! : )"

{Miss. Scarlett's Fave!}

He....fell into my arms...and wept....

Angels...

Like...the Angels...in Boston...

who ran to Help....Everyone!

oh my...

Yes...there is an evil...one...

But...There are...Army's...

of Angels...

If we give evil...a toe hold...

he'll take it...

But...if we Stand Up!

When Times...are So...Incredibly...Hard...

evil...doesn't stand...a chance....

You know...as I sit here....

writing...

I'm thinking...about the Place...I have been...

throughout... this last week...

A Home...I didn't want to be at...in the beginning...

That...I knew... somehow...would have...

'Blessings'...

a Home... where a Spiritual...Woman....

had created a Sanctuary...filled with...Love....

Filled with...Hearts...of every shape....and size...

  Positive....

Everything....

I felt...my Dad...sooooo Close....at hand...

I saw...Peg...in soooo many of Jackie's...treasures...

it was as if... they were Best Friends!

Liz...fell in Love with Jackie.... from the Moment...she stepped through the Door!!!

Said...how much...she would have LOVED Her!!!

Over and over... I have been... Amazed....

You see....

The Lord knew...

what would be coming....our way...

He made Sure... I was exactly...where I needed to be...

to weather...this Storm...

for myself...and...Loved Ones....

Yes...He Suited me...with Armor...

so... when the evil one... came in...to attack...

I had the Strength....

to direct him...

To The Man...

who...Has...

said...to him...

"Go Ahead....Make...My...Day"...

Love to You...and to all who Suffer...today...

Keep Smiling...

and...Look Up....

Barb C.

{I had a neighbor... ask me... {in a bewildered sort of way...}

last night...

Why...I was chosen to do this sale...

I stood there...

and didn't have an answer...

except...

 "They needed me"

Guess what....

It was the Other Way...around...: )

and...

I'll be sharing that...with her...: ) }

I have found... evil... feeds on negativity....
it's a Joy Stealer!!!!
I Will....Not...Have...Any of It....
Near Me....
There is...Positive.... Everywhere...if You Seek It!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Home...Safe...and Sound... : )

Thanks...to Everyone...

for their... Prayers...

and...

I...am Hurting....

I have a pinched nerve...in my shoulder...

there have been times... the last few days...working...trying to pull...the tag sale...together...

I want...to throw up...

I hurt...so...bad...

yet...that pain...is nothing...

compared...to the pressure....

on my Heart...

from...Miss. Scarlett's... Journey...

and...now...

Pegadoo...

Sometimes...

you...wonder... why...the Evil...One...

is...so... Evil....

I say...to him...

Back Off!!!!

Our Little Angels....

are Surrounded...

 By Pure Love!

He Doesn't Stand a Chance!!!!

I'm to the point...tonight...

I say...to him...

{like my Buddy... Clint...

'Dirty Harry'...}

"Go...Ahead...

Make My Day!!!!"

We...Have The Lord....

on our Side...

Seriously...

Go...Ahead...

Make...

My...

Day...
