Nouveau Wine Festival in Galena



Christmas shopping is well underway. People have been strolling through the streets looking for something special for everyone on their list.

It's interesting to see the excitement in one's face when they purchase something from my vintage store. Due to the time of the year I usually ask if it's for themselves or a gift. Then the story begins. Some items are to complete or add to a collection one has. Some of the items are from their childhood. And then there are those one-of-a-kind finds that some people can't believe they came across.

Galena has a lot to offer to those who want to get away for the day or weekend. Everything from B&B's, live music, fine dining, and shopping.

If your planning a visit today you may of already heard that it's Nouveau Wine Festival Weekend. The horse-drawn wagon carried those participants down Main Street yesterday for the parade. Local restaurants embrace the celebration, offering luncheons and wine tastings.

Stop in the shop and say "hi"~
