Out to Fairview looking for antiques.

I drove out to Fairview, Tennessee today, and stopped at Buried Treasures, which is on Highway 100 just before town. Anyone with the time and energy can find anything there if you are willing to dig. Old garden furniture is on one side of the shop, scattered over the lawn. On the other side is an entire house filled with old furniture. The second photo, with the singing bass on the wall, was taken deep into the shop where I found the little iron soda shop chairs shown in the photo taken in my apartment foyer. The white garden shelves and table, as well as the antique flower pots were out on the lawn.

Lana is the shop's owner, and to her the posted price is just a suggestion, especially if she has seen you before. She always knocks a few dollars off-

Lana also has books, paintings, lamps, dishware, linens, baskets, and much old cookware and old timey kitchen stuff. And the drive out takes you under the Natchez Trace Parkway and past the Loveless Motel and Restaurant. The town of Fairview is up on the west Highland Rim, and many of its fields are prairie remnants. I may drive out there this Sunday morning as I am looking for small country gardens to photograph.
