Who Is Ms. Dow?
- Marianne Dow
- LIMA, OHIO, United States
- So how exactly does a born and bred "So-Cal-Gal" ---from the O.C. no less--- wind up an antiques dealer back in Ohio? Well, one evening when I was in college, I went ice skating to cool off. There I saw a cute guy. The cute guy skated around me for a few years, but finally asked me out on a date. We've been together 27 years now. We got hooked on antiques when visiting his family in Ohio. There's just nothing like a country auction. Next thing I knew, we were living on a farm (!) next to his Grandparents. Now I'm an antiques dealer, with a booth in an antiques mall, selling at the occasional antiques show, and, of course, selling on ebay. With this blog, I will be sharing some of my adventures, thoughts, and "show-n-tell" pix.
