And I also have a beautiful black lace-bottom tank top. And I scored on the 20% off deal. The shop lady was super sweet and gave me ideas on what would go nicely with the pants. I came in the next day to show her the whole outfit. I looked so cute! We chatted for a few minutes and she gave me some ideas for afternoon activities in the area. I got lots of compliments all day on my new pants!

Like all stereotypes, this is based in ignorance and selective observation. So, given that context let me say I think this is the kind of place White middle class women would like, for clothing, hats, jewelry, perfume, bath oil, hand made soap, and gifts. I did find a pair of "Singing in the Rain" themed cufflinks that were a great gift to me. Friendly, woman centered customer service, a wonderful place if you're into this sort of thing but just not my cup of tea. So to speak.

What a delightful shop on Main Street in Galena. You'll find many spiritual and metaphysical items…read morehere. There are pendulums; books introducing one to paganism, or Wicca specifically as well; puzzles; tarot cards; pins; diaries; greeting cards; and so on. Nearly half of the shop features supplies for fiber crafts, so of course you'll find yarn here but also yarn bowls, cross stitch and embroidery kits, and so on. I bought several beautiful rolls of wrapping paper, which I spent a ridiculous amount of money in but it was really gorgeous and I can't wait to give some gifts now! The folks here also run a ghost tour. I overheard the proprietor speaking with some other customers, and he mentioned they do a 90 minute walking tour. I was so bummed that I had plans tonight (even more bummed that those plans didn't really materialize!!). Next time I visit I would like to take a ghost tour. It was especially interesting listening to these folks talk with the owner because they themselves are ghost hunters, and they were asking about haunted places and said they like to take their own equipment out to explore. The store is not really accessible, unfortunately. There is a big step up from the sidewalk to enter. If you have mobility issues but can manage a large step up (probably at least 6-8 inches) it may work, but wheelchair users will not be able to enter. The owners seem to be cultivating a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere, so if you need assistance I'm sure they would be happy to help.

It was a pair of denim colored V Italia boots, just like the red ones I bought during my last trip. Those boots got me so many compliments that I knew I needed one more pair. What I wasn't expecting was that they would have the same boot in a bronzed olive color that would also need to come home with me. See what I mean? And the cute, supportive grey boots with the red cuff? Etc. etc. etc. Yes, the clothes are cute, and yes, I was able to resist the awesome gloves and jewelry, this trip. However, the deconstructed beige cotton hoodie is making this winter a little warmer.
