This weekend is the twice annual Liberty Antiques Festival in Liberty, NC. I've never been and had never even heard of it until I read about it in the latest issue of Our State magazine.
From the article:
"On festival weekends, Friday morning starts, slam-bang, with vehicles backed up on the narrow two-lane road leading to the festival site and hundreds of people in line, waiting for the steam whistle to blow, signaling the 8 a.m. start of the event that has been voted the best show in the mid-Atlantic region. The show goes on rain or shine.
The surrounding countryside transforms, too, not just the old Pike farm. Essentially, there’s a 10-mile yard sale, stretching from Liberty to the nearby town of Siler City, as individuals try to piggyback on the popular festival."Yea...sounds just about perfect to me. So while the rest of the world is abuzz with talk of the Royal Wedding, I will be searching for treasures on a 100 acre farm in Liberty, NC.
Is anyone else planning on going?
I'll be tweeting the whole thing so if you can't make it follow along here.
