Fri, 29 Jan 2010 Antiquing in West Sonoma County
Now that we’re all environmentally aware - reuse, readapt, renew - it might be a good time to make a little weekend jaunt to Sebastopol and see what antiquing and going to a flea market is all about. There’s no pretense with over priced mid-century finds, its purely one person’s junk is another person’s treasure. And you will find some treasures. Click onto this link and read what the SF Chron said about spending some leisurely time culling for those decorative items you didn’t know you needed.

oh, and coincidentally most of these places surround our hotel the Fairfield Inn & Suites Sebastopol because you do need to make this a two day thing.

Waz up from Sonoma County
I just wanted to make sure you all understand that our Holiday Inn Express has changed names to the Fairfield Inn & Suites after our renovation completed January 26. Next weekend is the Gravenstein Apple Fair and that would be a great time to come up and take a look at what we’ve done to the place. Sure it went over budget, sure we changed names but the place looks mahvalous. Take a look at a coupla pix I uploaded.
