Great bones on those chairs. Before the Star Mill Antiques store closed he pulled out boxes of 'junk' for people to go through. My one friend got grossed out and said, "How do you know what to look for?" I told her, "You don't, that's the fun of it. Because you never know what you might find. But when you find something good you'll know it. She just didn't get it. She hated it and couldn't understand why I love the hunt. Thanks for sharing with SYC.

I am wondering what kind of business this was. Those enamelware pans - weren't they used for paraffin wraps? Love the chairs and I think I saw a rolling chair or table in the piles. I keep gloves, masks, and flashlights in my truck for potential pickings.Donna Wilkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12985036983888082763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10633837.post-4061118133608369182013-05-22T18:38:19.126-04:002013-05-22T18:38:19.126-04:00wowsa!!!

I must say though, as much as I enjoy reading your writing, the BEST line was "pe-ewww, da toilet!" . That just made me giggle. You're too much my dear friend.

I do have to stop and wonder...<br />wonder if my family thinks I'm crazy? wondering if they would call an intervention and ban me from ever playing with you (if we were to ever get to hang out and go junking, EVER) <br />I have these sudden urges, you know, to reach out and grab some little metal something and put it in my car to take home...while standing next to a trailer of 'what is being called-trash'--my hubby and his brother standing there discussing how , next week..."I've got to haul this trailer to the dump" blah, blah, blah...And I know my hubby would be mortified if I acted on those impulses. My brother in law would be baffled; and no doubt blab to the rest of the family how I ransacked his garbage... <br />Yes... I wonder about things like this all the time. <br />I wonder...if I lived in or around where you lived...if you'd let me come along and pick with you...<br />Or if you'd be my competitor. <br />;) <br /><br />PatPatricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.com
