I just came back from a wonderful weekend adventure with two friends, Heidi and Sara, and a new buddy – Heidi’s daughter Camryn.  We traveled about 4 hours from home to Rochester, MN to spend a couple nights in a hotel eating a lot of delicious (but not healthy) food and by day hanging out walking the 1500+ vendors with antiques.

Heidi purchased a beautiful pair of antique lamps that will wonderful in her home as well as a few other items, Sara and Camryn as well made some small purchases.

Me?  I found seven Nancy Drew books (the originals) that I was excited about as I have wanted to start finding all of them as well as the original Hardy Boys.  Two series I had spent much of my childhood with.

So pictured here are the seven books, I know I have many to find – but this gives me a good start!

The titles are:

• The Secret of the Old Clock and The Hidden Staircase
• The Sign of The Twisted Candle and Password to Larkspur Lane
• The Bungalow Mystery and The Mystery at Lilac Inn
• The Clue in the Jewel Box and The Secret in The Old Attic
• The Clue in the Diary and Nancy’s Mysterious Letter
• The Mystery of The Moss Covered Mansion and The Quest of the Missing Map
• The Secret of Shadow Ranch and The Secret of Red Gate Farm

My Nancy Drew hunt continues…
