There is a courtyard in the center of the downtown area, and the road revolves around it, and yes, its a state highway! It always scare the heebie jeebies out of me to drive around it!
Here is a better view of the Civil War Memorial.
Here is the courthouse. I love the architecture of it!
See that antique shop with the purple awning? I found a couple treasures there! It was chock full of beautiful antiques.
Angola has the most quaint downtown. It's full of small town charm. They have two theaters in the downtown area. Don't they look just like something you would see in a 50's era movie?
Angola is a resort area because of having 101 lakes in the county. It seems everywhere you turn, there is a lake, and people are itching to build on those lakes! That's prime real estate!Here is an adorable ice cream shop. I love those chairs out front and I wish I had some just like them! There is a display of cardboard 1950s cars in the window
They were having a 50% off sale in this shop. My mouth dropped when I went in because it was just the cutest shop! It had gorgeous displays all over and lots of lovely things. I could have spent mega bucks in there. I asked to take pics, but I got shut down. Well darn!
I have been really good about not buying things, but when I saw this sweet little box in a shade of green that I love, beadboard, and a pretty scroll-y top, I just had to have it, and at $17, it was a terrific bargain!
After that, I strolled over to the antique shop. I saw a lot of stuff that I liked, but nothing really grabbed me until I saw this!!! I love the berry dish.
And there were 6 of them for only $20! See how great they go with my plate from Pink Saturday!
I had spotted something else too, but there was no price tag. I have been looking for a good bargain in wicker for a long time, as I just adore wicker, but don't own any. Well now I do as I got this set for just $20! The proprietor said he didn't know if the seller wanted $40 or $20, but as he quoted me the lower price, that was what I could have them for!
Isn't this awesome? I can put the chairs together to make a settee, or separate them for two chairs!
I'm sure I can do something with these! I was so excited I was smiling all the way home! One of the best things is that I got an additional 10% off and that took care of the tax on my purchase.
