Herculaneum and Crystal City Day Tripping

Big Guy and I watch gardening shows and constantly get ideas for new things to put into the garden. On a recent episode, the gardener, @alysf, recycled an old tub to use for her strawberries and blueberries.

An idea was born to find an old tub, or new. We started by heading out to Buchheit in Herculaneum to check out the shapes and sizes of new tubs. It was an effective way to get our heads wrapped around our goal.

As we were already “next door” to Crystal City, we decided to check out their antiques stores as well. When in Rome? As they were all on the same road, we stopped by Clastique, the Rusty Rooster Mercantile, and Myles of Pickins. We loved the outdoor “photo shops” at Clastique drawing us into the store.

The stores were all stocked to the brim, but nothing tempted us this time. I can hear my wallet sighing with relief!
