The Roadium Open Air Market and a Euphonia: A Love Story Our shop is ordinarily closed on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Laurence and I had decided that this week we would go and have a look around the Roadium on Wednesday morning.  http://www.roadium.com/  There are a lot of vendors at this market, and most of them do not have antiques or collectibles.
