Elfreth's Alley (part 1)

I had to go to Olde City for a business meeting, so I thought since I'd be near Elfreth's Alley (highlighted in my virtual tour few weeks back) -- I would stop in the museum store and see what goodies I could pick up. Of course it was raining (again) -- but would I let that stop me?? Nooooo! So....I clicked my high heels down the cobblestones... holding an umbrella in one hand and a camera in the other....
uh oh... it's awfully quiet around here today....doesn't look like they're quite ready for tourist season either....looking for #124...getting tingly... can't wait to go crazy in there and buy out the shop! This is pretty cool -- opened in 1755-- just yesterday! LOL... I want that chair!

Oh, I wonder what's behind that red door ( with apologies to Linda!!) -- is this cute or what??
I'm getting closer! High heels still clicking....ohhhh, those primitive colors on the shutters and the doors!I wouldn't mind having one of these attached to my home...how about you?OH NO!!! Say it isn't so!!! CLOSED TODAY!!! I have to go back this weekend?!?!?! When it's 85 degrees! And no place to park!! OH NO!! Oh well....can't win 'em all!!But look at this little cutie in the window! Oh well.... stay tuned for PART 2!! When I go back this weekend, I think I'll tour the homes inside... should be great!! Believe it or not, Olde City is only 20 minutes from home. See ya Saturday, cutie!
