More folks awaiting the opening of the show.
A few examples outside the tent. One dealer has some wonderful chairs...nothing we could use but I certainly admired them. It was a set of four heavy slated chairs with metal arms and legs...wide seats and backs. What made them remarkable was the back of each chair had a bronze polo player on a horse....these chairs were breath taking...never saw anything like them. There were pricey but if I was into polo I would have to give them a second thought...I can see them belonging to Ralph Lauren! She also had a wonderful zinc table with four chairs in a woven pattern...I really could have owned that set for sure. She said she would be at the antiques show in the Hamptons in July...so who knows?! We plan to take the ferry over from Connecticut and attend that show...hope to see her there.
Lots of patio sets outside.
In this corner were two dealers with some wonderful things. We fell in love with a pair of granite planters...and ended up buying them. They are a very plain set with a few thin line carvings for eye appeal...age about 1880's. They are very very nice. 
Here is Bob and the dealer wheeling our new planter out of the tent.
My husband and the dealer loading one of these incredibly heavy granite planters into the back of the van.
All loaded and ready for the next one.
Below is a bouquet I picked this weekend and wanted to share it...day lilies and catmint for color and coral bell, hosta, lily leaves and ferns for filler and eye appeal...I think it is simply beautiful...going through the garden and finding this assortment was a pleasure.
Wanted to share this rhododendron border with you...we discovered it a few weeks ago. This is on a road we travel all the time and you would never know this treasure is here...as it is always just a huge green privacy hedge for the house behind it. But once a year it gives everyone a glorious gift of color.
Absolutely beautiful!!!!!
Hope you have a great day....
Elizabeth
