Junk Store

Whenever Charlotte goes thrift store shopping with us she refers to the stores as Junk Stores.  I wish she could have seen this store!!  It's the king of all junk stores!  I visited it last Wednesday during a day trip to PA. We didn't get to browse long because we got there fifteen minutes before closing...but the owner said he wouldn't chase us away.  So we spent about 25 minutes looking at all the treasures "Don & Ann" have gathered.
 

The treasures began outside...with this rusty, old truck and the pretty neat Texaco gas pump.




  
For as much junk as there was in this large old building, I was amazed at how organized it was. Here's the "flag section" of the store.  There were five shelves full of them.  Then came the marbles, clocks, tins, silver, scissors, and cameras.








String and rolling pins...and barrels full of yard sticks!  I loved the yard sticks!!



Drawers full of hardware and tools, lots of doorknobs, and more scissors.





Here's my purchase...a little bit of yard art.
 

I also got to meet this sweet baby squirrel.  Definitely one of the high points of my day!
