WILL THE FAT LADY SING ? THAT IS THE QUESTION OF THE DAY.
The show is over. The anxiety of the trip to Nashville and the setup has passed. The shorter show schedule this year leaves us wondering who might have returned on Sunday (as is the custom at this show) to make their purchase. So, We ask will the fat lady sing? Time will tell.
While waiting for the answer we have new challenges. An unwanted but needed truck repair and a new winter storm to travel home with. Neither one is without tension and stress.
So goes the way of this President's day holiday.
The journey continues.

SAVED BY THE WEATHER CHANNEL
THE WEATHER CHANNEL
Saved by TWC. That is it in a nut shell. We were so freaked out about the pending storm warnings and the possibility that our dog sitter would not be able to get to our house and that we would be leaving our Molly dog home alone, that we made a decision (and that’s not easy) to leave NOW
And a good decision at that.
We traveled in rain on the northerly route from Solebury to Nashvillle and only encountered driving rains, heavy winds and a few snowflakes.
If we had waited to leave as originally planned---we would not be able to and would more than likely not be in Nashville
in time for the show.
We are here and hope you will be too, to enjoy Antiques Week in Nashville.
It starts with the preview gala on Wednesday evening and ends on Saturday.

THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME
Internationally-Known Lecturers Illuminate the Shape of Things to Come at 20th Anniversary Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville
Her Grace, The Duchess of Northumberland, England ~
February 11~10:30 a.m.
She is the visionary behind The Alnwick Garden in Northumberland which houses England's largest collection of European plants, the world's biggest Tree house and, along with Alnwick Castle, is the featured site of "Hogwarts" from the first two Harry Potter movies. The Duchess plays an active role in the day-to-day planning for this exciting and contemporary garden project which uses its resources to benefit the public.
Michael S. Smith, Decorator to The White House ~ February 11~1 p.m.
With an international profile of residential and commercial clients including Cindy Crawford, Steven Spielberg and Dustin Hoffman, Michael S. Smith's consistent style has been characterized as a delicate blend of "European tradition and American modernism." And in 2009, Smith was chosen by the President and First Lady to redecorate the White House living quarters for their family. "It's an amazing honor to be asked," the Los-Angeles designer said as he revealed plans to explore incorporating collections of American art and pieces in storage at the Smithsonian to add to the White House walls. "It should make it much more diverse, and at the same time, more homelike for the family."
Ryan Gainey, Award-Winning Garden Designer & Author ~ Introduction by Carolyn Englefield,
Editor-at-Large, Veranda Magazine ~
February 12 ~10:30 a.m.
As an internationally-known gardener, designer and landscaper, Gainey has crafted magnificent gardens around the world -- each with an individual vision based on classical design and seasonal elements. His special horticultural expertise will invigorate the senses as 2010 show-goers are greeted by Gainey's grand Entry Garden -- a feast for the eyes with spectacularly shaped and patterned surroundings in a traditional yet contemporary design. Based in Decatur, Georgia, Gainey is currently working on private gardens from East Hampton to Palm Beach. He will be introduced by Veranda Editor-at-Large Carolyn Englefield for this most colorful lecture.
