Frisco Mercantile

My last blog was about a must see marketplace store in Frisco TX, and y’all started to ask me for more. So here is another fun store just a few miles down the road from the Painted Tree Marketplace. If you plan to go to one, you might as well just go to both!

There are 200+ vendors selling home goods, clothing, decor, art, antiques, and collectibles, etc. You can even still find some booths that have fall decor (which I personally love seeing).

If you are more of an antique person you will also really enjoy this store. Maybe you have a family member that collects items from the past. There are a bunch of booths like this here that throw you back in time. It’s fun to look at some of the items in these booths, like old metal lunch boxes, or old collectibles. My kids get a kick out of seeing things I remember from when I was young. Apparently I am “an antique”! (My kids think they are funny)!

The cool thing about this store is that maybe you don’t like antiques. Maybe you like farmhouse decor. There is plenty of that here too! You can absolutely find the “perfect” item to put in that spot you have been trying to fill in your house here.

It’s almost like a treasure hunt with some booths overflowing with items. So much to see, so much to choose from, so many different styles!

Oh, and if you want to just skip over the fall season entirely there is a whole Christmas section set up in the back!

So Frisco Mercantile has a little bit of everything. It’s a great place and Y’all Need To See It if you are in the area!

Post Oak Creek - Fossil/Shark Teeth Hunt

Did y'all know that in Sherman Texas (about 30 minutes north of McKinney) there is a great spot to search for old shark teeth and fossils? There were fossils everywhere. Just pick a spot to sit and start scooping up rocks and you are bound to find something interesting! Supposedly the old shark teeth are from 145 million years ago. (Some of our finds) We went with friends, because what better way is there to spend a gorgeous day outside (easily able to social distance), but still so much fun! I mainly took pictures...because hey, it was just beautiful. And because I love taking pictures of people having fun. But everyone else was sifting rocks and enjoying hanging out in the water of the creek looking for shark teeth and cool fossils and rocks. I couldn't believe how many they found!! If you find something different here is a good link to see what it is: http://northtexasfossils.com/sharks.htm Who knew that you could do someth...

Frisco Central Park

Yes, y'all read that right... Central Park . Being from New York the name of this park caught my attention the first time I drove past it. And then a second later I saw all the Longhorn Statues on the front lawn and it went from "I wonder what type of park this is" to "I need to walk around this park!" I am glad I did...I think you might like it too! Obviously, that is why I am telling y'all about it! The first thing I need to tell you is that the park is nowhere near as big as the NYC Central Park. It is actually very small (or as my kids would say, "perfect size"). But there is a lot of beauty in this very small place. Some people even call it a "hidden gem in Frisco". I would agree with that! Location: 3155 Parkwood Blvd, Frisco TX 75034. It is right off of Parkwood. You might not even see it at first because it is surrounded by hotels...but you probably won't miss the big Long...

Prairie Creek Park

Did y'all know that right here in North Texas there is a hidden waterfall? It is tucked inside a wooded greenbelt park that has trails, bridges, and creeks....and it is located right in Richardson Texas. Prairie Creek Park! The history of this park is that it was founded in 1966 and is one of the oldest and most historical parks in Richardson. This area has been preserved to protect nature and wildlife habitats. Beautiful park, and has a waterfall?!! Y’all need to go see this place! And I should mention that the waterfall is so easy to access. It is very close to the street where you can park. And it is pretty easy to find because before you can even see it you will hear it. The sound of strong rushing water seems to echo through the trees. And you can even walk over the top of the fall to get onto the trail! You can go and just see the waterfall but I highly recommend going for the walk through the trails. It is so peace...
