untapped treasure hunting
on the drive up to camping my cousin had mentioned that one of our friends had camped here july 4th weekend and discovered this great little thrift store...which was one of the first things she mentioned when we got t out of the car...that it was imperative that we go....man was it amazing! it looked like a beat up shack from the outside but inside it was filled with amazing untouched treasures...each one of the girls walked out of that store with a box filled with amazing finds and each person spent no more then $20!!!!!!!! i couldn't believe it! here in the bay area i can easily walk away with the amount of stuff i bought and have spent around $30...truly a gold mind....no really...tuolumne used to be a place where gold was mined...how to do you like that factoid :D
anywho...i was really excited to walk in to the store and find the two owl prints staring right at me as if they new i was coming...those were clenched tightly in my arms the entire time i was in the store...i love the cute earthenware mug and the glass salt and pepper shaker...i saw the tiger cub patch at the register and new the mister would like it...he used to be in the tiger cub club when he was a tiny one...the black faux alligator purse will be put in my etsy shop and i am really happy with my denim dress and my navy polyester 70's wrap skirt and sleeveless small check button up...all that outfit needs is a pair of red cowboy boots and i am off to the rode or a dallas themed bbq...your pick
i am determined to go to smaller towns or better yet...go on ROAD TRIP and pick through these untapped treasure chests :D

ReplyDeleteoh my gosh!!! the large owl painting, with the two owls-my grandmother had that hanging in her living room all through my childhood. in fact she still does.
ReplyDeleteoh the grandma's house memories are welling up in me now:)
emma: my sister in law had mentioned to me that she actually has that larger owl print at home..funny because when i brought it home the mister said it looked oddly familiar... i desire to be that grandma who has a creepy collection of owls...i hope i am almost there...i have been meaning to do a post of my owls...waiting to get some pictures back from walgreens!!!!
