EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT
THE ROUND TOP SHOWS BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK!
Antique & Craft Central - Okay,
you heard about Round Top on TV or maybe in a newspaper or
magazine. Considering Round Top’s glut of high profile
public relations over the last year, it’s likely
that’s how you heard about this little town of 81.
After all, Emma
Lee Turney’s Round Top Antiques Fair, the Festival-Institute
at Round Top, its music and herb gardens, and even
this little newspaper have been the subjects of a lot of
media attention... or maybe a friend had visited before
and was raving about the “Round Top show” and you just
had to come see what all the fuss was about. It sounded
kind of relaxing to do a little antiques and crafts
shopping in a tiny little town lost in the Texas
countryside.
You called several weeks ahead and tried to get a room.
Everyone was much too nice to laugh, but even so, you
found that all the inns were full.
Dreaming of Our True
Home
Editor and Family to Become
Internet Millionaires?
Something very exciting is happening in my life. It's
called ourtruehome.com.
Since I have the habit of sharing my personal circumstances with my long-suffering readers, I have decided it is time to tell you the story of a project I have been working on for years that will soon become
very public. |

Okay,
that was a minor setback. You swore to do better in the
Spring.
Then, that fateful day arrived when you
drove up to Round Top. As you turned onto Hwy 237 from Hwy
71, you noticed the traffic was getting a little
stiff but you didn’t let that bother you either.
You’re a professional shopper. You’re a lean, mean
buying machine and you carry cash.
Nothing can stop you... except Warrenton.
Suddenly, the horizon is filled with tents and tables
covered with every implement of household decoration known
to man. People are rushing around like human piranhas in a
feeding frenzy. The traffic is at a standstill.
You’re lost...bewildered... distraught. What can you
do? What can you do?
It’s simple. Just open the world famous Round Top
Register.
Oh...yeah, you already did that.

It is a story about a family who works together, and an intellectual quest that began well over fifteen years ago that will soon come to fruition.
Hopefully it will be a rags to riches story, but whatever happens in the end, it is the tale of a small group of people who have taken enormous risks against all odds to create something they truly
believe can help people find their way home.
