Treasures Around Every Building and Field!!

Again, we are out rescuing junk from a fate that none of us want to think about, the scrap iron pile, or a burn pile. Check out the pile of great drawer fronts with little cast iron pulls on them. Does anyone have any great ideas for these jewels?

This is the house that is on this property. After visiting with the owner of this old beauty, he informed me that the house use to be an old drug store in a nearby town in the beginning of its life, it was then moved to this farm where it has been every since. But as all old things, it is slated to be burned down, so we are trying to salvage anything we can find before its fateful day.

Interesting huh? These are the steps to the basement of the house, it's a wide staircase for fast exits in case of unexpected residents.....

The inside has boxes of stuff and all kinds of things to discover.....

So, as we find things I will post photos of them so you can share my rescue experience with me. Have you rescued anything lately that was meeting an uncertain fate? Stay posted for pics of our finds!

Road Trip with the Fam...

This past weekend I took off to go visit my sister, so we headed to Omaha to check out some places in the Old Market area. One of the places we stopped was the Vintage Flying Worm, super store with great vintage clothing from the 70's.

They had great pieces made from some popular fabrics from that era...

The girls had a great time trying on some of the fashions

and the eye glasses!

We also had to go and get some the world famous Skeet's barbecue ribs. My dad use to sell firewood to Skeet's when we were kids so we had to go seek it out and see if it was still there.

They still taste the same as they did all those years ago, now if they just had t-shirts! Darn! Are there any places you have revisited lately from your childhood?
