Snohomish "then" The town of Snohomish is about an hour's drive north of Seattle. It was founded in the 1870's as a rough ferry landing for loggers, but now it's been transformed into a lady shopping destination with dozens of antique shops and "country" stores.

Snohomish "now"If you've never had the antique mall experience, I can tell you it's a warehouse maze full of individual booths, crammed with anything and everything. It is bewildering and wonderful. We looked, we touched, we laughed, we exclaimed at prices and snitched decorating ideas. Lucky me, being a Nana I had the best excuse to shop for old toys. Along with the memory of a wonderful day with three best friends, here's what I came home with:
Something interesting for the "lady doll" box, and the cutest Breyer horse I've ever seen.Nova,
