Plan B

The other day I told you that my friend Debbie and I were going to a huge craft show on Saturday. Well after I wrote that post I discovered that the craft show had been cancelled. Debbie found another one that we could go to instead. 

This one was located in the Warner Theater in Erie, Pa. This is a very impressive place. It was built in 1930 and it's an Art Deco and French Renaissance style theater. If you click HERE you can see a picture of the outside of the theater. 

I took a few pictures inside but because of the lighting and only using my cell phone, they aren't very good. It does give you an idea of how impressive this place is though.


This is standing at the top of the steps looking down towards the front lobby


Inside looking back towards the balcony


Looking across, you can see the stage to the left


An impressive light fixture that caught my eye

Did I buy anything? Why yes I did. While Debbie did very well purchasing several Christmas gifts, I bought two things for myself and only one Christmas gift. Maybe tomorrow I'll have pictures of the things I bought.

A classic building, very nice

Well then that would be Merry Christmas to you....correct? haha...When younger and raising kids I always was buying for others or the house. I hardly ever purchased for me. That changed along the way, after kids were gone, I was divorced and I had my home to myself. I buy a lot for the home now...normally building supplies but I also purchase for me now....So I say, ENJOY!

Wow, it is gorgeous! And yes, my question was did you buy anything. So you have figured out my questions now. Can't wait to see what you bought!

What a beautiful place to go for a show. I love it and it's even more fun just roaming around taking shots of the building.

Have a fabulous day, Ann. Big hug to you and tons of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
