NEBRASKA JUNK JAUNT

I could not have staged this picture of the kittens on this old chase lounge if I wanted to. This is how we found them at the Thompson's place. Just relaxing on a beautiful warm Nebraska day. ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!





This is one of our most favorite buying trips of the year. We set out for Grand Island, Nebraska, which is only 5 hours from where we live. We stay the the Holiday Inn Express and park our cargo trailer in a lot next to the hotel. We take our truck out each day and fill it up and come back at the end of the day and off load the stuff into the trailer. It is so much fun. We meet the nicest people.






One of our favorite places to stop is in Sargent, Nebraska (Thompson's Treasures). Dave and his wife have a beautiful old house loaded with architectual salvage, western stuff, and stuff they make. We get a lot of our salvage for our products at their place.
