Windy Wyoming, on to Colorado & Back!

So we took off on April 3, to deliver a fabulous antique cabinet to our sweet Sandy, in Ft Collins Colorado. I checked weather along the route, and it was to be 60 degrees, balmy and sunny. Right! Pack your spring clothes Rachel, we're going to have fantastic weather! So take a look at the photo of Rachel now, does her hair look normal? She's INSIDE the suburban and she has the Justin B. look going on. Why? There's an 80 mph wind happening, and she's inside!!!!! Now take a look at me. I may be smiling, but that's because I'm laughing at Rachel's hairdo as she's taking my photo. We're in Casper Wyoming and yes, the sun is shining, but we can't stand upright!! Okay, enough about the weather, let's discuss the shopping! Wow! We hit the boutiques of Ft Collins, note the street scene where we strolled up and down looking for fabulous product, and note the green grass and garden, and yes, real flowers planted there! We love Ft Collins!! And yes, the shot of the trailer may not show all the yummies we brought back, but look close and you'll see images of shabby peely paint and the color aqua, and old garden furniture and vintage typewriters, and even blanket covered industrial chests.... and it will all be unpacked soon. Very soon. More to come!! All the best, Colette & Rachel

Windy Wyoming!

As you all know every road trip is an adventure! This is what we have learned so far on this trip to Fort Collins Colorado (wish we could add pictures). 1. It's always windy in Wyoming!! 2. When the neon sign over the interstate says the road is closed to light weight trailers due to high winds, you listen and take the alternate route. 3. The alternate route is prettier anyway! 4. Not many rest stops on the alternate route. 5. When Colette comes out of the outhouse rest stop and says "heres what you need to know" you may want to consider holding it awhile longer! 6. Wind swirls up from the hole in an outhouse. Does anyone know if they make hand sanitizer for your nostrils? Rachel really wanted some! 7. Pair of gloves and Colettes left boot may need to be burned after the incident with the Wyoming outhouse! 8. When you lose the camera, look between your feet on the car floor! 9. When you lose the cell phone, look in the parking lot! This is what we have learned so far! Four days to go I'm sure we will have more wisdom to share by the time we are done! All the best!

On the Road Again!

I just can't wait to get on the road again! I think the song goes something like that! We are excited to say our wait is almost over...We're off to the Denver area on Sunday! I know it seems like we're always going somewhere, and it's a tough job, but somebody has to do it! Fortunately for all of our customers we will remain open while we are away! There will be no Station 8 withdrawl this time!
So, I wanted to tempt you all with some lovely pictures of a few of the goodies we brought back from our last adventure! Like all of these lovely clock faces we found on our trip to Seattle.


So come say "Hi" to the girls while we're gone, and we'll have new things to share with you all when we get home!


All the Best!

We had a very successful third DIVA Date at Station 8! Thank you to the Faith family for participating, and letting us help you promote The Princess Ball! Of course we had a blast as always, and Candy your pink champane cupcakes were lovely! The Princess Ball is this Saturday, March 26th. We hope it is a great success! The Faith family Josh, Candy (in the spectacular ball gown), and Candy's mom Jennifer.
Betsy in all her finery! She sure does know how to strike a pose!

Colette is all smiles in her aqua frock!

And of course the three of us Station 8 girls! Look closely it may be the only time you ever see us all in dresses!
All in all it was a great night! Thanks to all of you who came and showed your support!
All the Best,
Rachel & Colette

Diva's and Princesses

Are you a Diva or a Princess? Here at Station 8 we don't see why you should have to choose! We believe that there is a little bit of both in every girl. That's just one reason why we asked the Faith family, the founders of the Princess Ball to join us for our third DIVA date this Friday!

The Princess Ball is a fundraiser being held in memory of Valicity Faith, a very courageous little princess who lost her battle with leukemia last July. The ball will be held March 26th in the ballroom above Alpine Lighting in Kalispell, and includes silent and live auction's! All the proceeds will be donated to Angel Flight West. Tickets for the Princess Ball will be sold at Station 8 during our DIVA date this Friday March 18! So please come support this great cause!

Of course there will be the usual chocolate, wine, and shopping, does it get any better than that? Yes it does! Did I mention ball gown's? We will all be dressed for the occasion in ball gowns, and accessories from Fasion Finds! Just one more reason to come join the fun (it's not often we shed the jeans and boots for gowns)!

Hope to see you all there!

All the Best,
Rachel & Colette
