I went to Disneyland today. Well, Disneyland for those obsessed with mid-century living. Since we couldn't have our much anticipated garage sale due to rain, David & I decided to check out a store a that his friend, Dick, warned us about. The rumor was that one hadn't really seen mid-century furniture until they had visited Midway Antique Mall in Sacramento, CA. So off we went.

The moment the front doors opened I felt as if I had just entered a time capsule and was now standing in someones living room in 1957. And best of all was that the Walt Disney of mid- century furnishing (owner: Mark Saunders) gave us a personal tour of his front show rooms. He may do this for everyone who enters the doors but it made me feel like a celebrity. His stories about how Midway came to be were the highlight of the tour for me.
