What a wonderful place. Hmmmm...that reminds me...I should clean out my garage. I can relate to that kind of "pack-ratitis". I love when I come across things in my garage that I've owned for more than 50-60 years. It sort of grounds me. Yesterday Barney (my chocolate lab) had an accident in the garage which resulted in wetting a cardboard box full of "old stuff" The box was full of old newspapers reporting events dating back to 1927 . It was interesting to read original news reports of the moon landing, JFK and RFK assassinations, FDR's death, the day WWII ended and on and on.Did you know that Bette Davis was under contract to Warner Brothers for $3000/week in 1936 ? Alas my son has no interest in antiquity and will probably sell all my stuff on ebay when I'm gone :cry
Can you do a price check for me: third item down, six over from the left.
Howdy Tom,

The old "One man's Trash is another man's treasure came to mind
immediately.

Hi Travis,
I'm with you. This place has fascinated me for years. It's a true one-of-a- kind.

I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

Hey Randy,
Doesn't this place just drop you in your tracks? I mean it took some time and effort to create such a place.

Hi Jack,
My wife claims that I'm the Exhaulted Grand Dragon of pack-ratters. I find her claim hard to refute but, when I see this place, I realize I'm an " also-ran " and I bow appropriately to the genius mind behind the whole thing.
See ya,
Tom

Hey Craig,
Another old saying also comes to mind: " There, but for the grace of God, go I ". In fact, I'm not too sure that one of my brothers and I don't qualify for membership to this place.
Take care,
Tom

The first picture, though, would make an interesting game. How many items can be found?!!?
I see a bell!
