We decided to kick off our tag sale season a little early this year. It didn't feel quite like spring outside. It was rainy, windy and cold! We even had to shovel a little snow off the front sidewalk before we opened the doors. But that's okay, our customers always bring their own sunshine. And in this case, we had a little extra Florida sunshine from these two lovely ladies!
We always start our sale weekends with a Wednesday evening preview beginning at 3:00 PM. I received this email a few hours before we opened.
My sister and I are here from Florida. We can't wait till 3:00!

And of course I'm thinking ... how nice that our sale coincides with their visit to Maryland.
Well guess what ... Cathy and Missy drove from Florida to Maryland just to visit our tag sale! They are long-time blog readers and just always wanted to come to a sale, so they did!
Our first reaction was ... NO YOU DID NOT!
We were totally blown away!!!
I mapquested it, that's over 900 miles and about 14 hours of driving each way!
Cathy and Missy ... thank you from the bottom of our hearts! It was a pleasure to meet you and you made us feel so very special. We are still smiling! Hope you enjoyed your trip to Maryland!
I've said it before, I just love the people we meet along the way!
And what wonderful inspiration!
Is there something you've always wanted to do?
Maybe you just need to do it!!!

Whooo Hoooo! How exciting! Isn't it amazing to know that someone loves you and what you do enough to do that-to make that long of a drive? I hope they found a few "bargains" there that they could take home. xo Diana
I should have hitched a ride with them from the South! I would love to drive up some day as well. I know they enjoyed it!
That is just awesome!! Maybe I will be able to get there some day for a tag sale, you just never know right. :-) Have a great week.
That is just so amazing and fun!
Oh how fun! Perhaps I should schedule a first ever trip to the East coast myself :)
