SHOPPING

You'll find a lot of fun shopping, neat restaurants, and entertainment in Shockoe Slip, along Main, Canal, and Cary Streets, between 10th & 14th Streets. As you wander along Main Street, you'll find neat antique stores like Bradleys Antiques, 101 E Main St., 804-644-7305; and Urban Artifacts, 1208 W Main, 804-355-9692.

You'll find more antique shopping at Civil War Antiques, 7605 Midlothian Tpke., 804-272-4570; Anthill Antiques, 3439 W Cary St, 804-254-2000; and Golf Antiques & Collectibles, 3225 SW Grace St, 804-355-6425.

Do you love fine handmade goods? Then you'll want to head to Tinker & Company, 2409 Westwood Ave, 804-359-1843, where you'll find contemporary folk art and sculptures. You'll find more wonderful hand made pieces at the the Toymaker, 1215 E Cary St., 804-783-1744; and Peppermint Moon, 12719 Glenkirk Rd, 804-360-9976.

If you love making your own creations, then you'll want to visit Calico Corners, 8906 W Broad St., 804-346-4601; Counted Thread Cross Stitching, 200 Turner Rd., 804-276-5434; the Ben Franklin Store, 8524 Patterson Ave, 804-740-7306; Hobby Corner, 7150 Hull Street Rd., 804-276-4151; and the Fabric Shop,8530 Patterson Ave, 804-740-7312.

Does the idea of wandering through a Bazaar searching out wonderful treasures make your heart beat faster? Then one of our American Journeys RVers recommends you head north to exit 110 (Ladysmith) on I-95 and the Virginia Bazaar, 888-568-3532. Here you'll find hundreds of little shops carrying all kinds of goodies. And if all this walking makes you hungry, don't worry. All you have to do is drop into Sandy's Deli for a great sandwich.

Are you running a little low on good reading material? Then you'll want to stop in at the Book Rack, 8801 G Street, 804-288-3418. If your traveling companion would rather chew on a book than read one, maybe you'd better head instead to the Love of Pete!, 322 W Libbie Ave, 804-288-3674; or the PetSmart, 7504 W Broad St, 804-672-0137.

If you love the variety of a farmer's market, then head down to 100 N 17th St and the Farmer's Market, daily, 804-780-8597, which has been open for over 300 years so they must be doing something right! If what you really need is just some groceries head to Duke's Market, Us Rt. 1 & Ashcak Rd., Ashland, VA, 804-798-6604.
