From the time I tagged along with Daddy to flea markets<\/a>, I\u2019ve adored antiques. Yesterday\u2019s treasures ground us in what\u2019s lasting and true.<\/p>\n

Then I heard about a fabulous antiques venue: the tiny Texas town of Round Top. Antiques dealer and show promoter Emma Lee Turney invited the best dealers to show off their American Country antiques for one week in October 1968. Some 6,000 vintage devotees flocked there.<\/p>\n

In 1995, I went to see what all the fuss was about. The B&Bs were booked, but I found a little cottage on a ranch. The rancher\u2019s wife insisted I check out Royers Round Top Caf\u00e9. Bud \u201cThe Pieman\u201d Royer led me to a crowded table. \u201cHold on to your forks after dinner,\u201d one lady said. \u201cThe best is yet to come\u2014the pie!\u201d<\/p>\n

Bud\u2019s son Jona\u00adthan and daughter-in-law, Jamie-Len, run the caf\u00e9 now. His daughter, Tara, opened Royers Pie Haven in a tin-roof house adorned with quirky art and pie tins. \u201cFolks show up in Round Top with a wrestling in their soul,\u201d Tara says. \u201cThey lean in and listen to the whispers of God<\/a>\u2019s gifts on their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Highway 237, a two-lane country road, was packed with vendor tents. I hadn\u2019t gone four yards when I spotted a brown-and-yellow terrier teapot. Majolica! I\u2019d only seen the European china in magazines.<\/p>\n

Two tents down, a seen-better-days farm table<\/a> called to me. I felt a kinship with its battered top and carved initials. \u201cChips and dents are where the story is,\u201d the vendor said.<\/p>\n

I rubbed shoulders with shoppers who snagged folk art, salt-glazed stoneware, turquoise and silver rings. I loved it all so much, I returned five years ago.<\/p>\n

Emma Lee Turney died this year, but she lived to see her idea become a global attraction, with thousands of antiques vendors. And to witness Round Top elect a 40-year-old mayor, Mark Massey, whose campaign slogan was Keep Round Top, Round Top<\/em>. \u201cPeople come here to reboot<\/a> and leave with a second chance,\u201d he says. The sign welcoming visitors says Round Top\u2019s population is 90, but attendance during Antiques Week in April and October swells to 90,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole world comes here twice a year,\u201d says Jolie Sikes, who with her sister, Amie, owns the Junk Gypsy vintage store. Their eclectic array of old advertising memorabilia, cowboy boots and vintage jewelry took my breath away.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis here\u2019s a sanctuary of the world\u2019s finest junk,\u201d Amie told me with a Texas-size grin. I\u2019d come for vintage finds<\/a>. But something swelled in my spirit that couldn\u2019t be stowed in a suitcase: the assurance that there\u2019s nothing that can\u2019t be repurposed for greater glory<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The magic of Round Top includes me. Ninety-one <\/em>people can\u2019t be wrong!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
