I am so glad to see all the current treasures you have gotten! The textiles...be still my heart! Exhausted and poor? I can totally identify! I am smiling with so many memories of slogging through the muddy fields which sucked up our boots and we'd step right out of them, fields opening at 11pm with us chasing vehicles to their spaces and looking at treasured finds with flashlights, forgetting where we had left purchases in the maze of all the fields, hornets attacking us at lunch, smelling the downpour coming on a sudden wind, finding the perfect "find" right on the side of the road, filling our rental cars-inside and out- and taking all of it as extra baggage at $ 2 a box (!), laughing til we cried every night sharing our crazy stories of the day! All experiences of a lifetime! The eternal thrill of the hunt..so glad to be reminded so often!

Isn't it nice to come home and find a lovely addition instead of a "oh my goodness why'd they do that?"<br /><br /> Id like to hear where (and how) you found your new/old flooring? I've actually been searching craigslist for old barns being torn down for some old flooring options, so I'm really curious.
