Not just another WordPress.com weblog. Staples Family Reunion 2015. C2C 2006 Days 21-30. Day 21 Midland, SD to Pierre, SD. Saturday, July 1, 2006. Another short (relatively) day of only 65 miles. Plus the drop in temperature made for another uneventful day. It had rained overnight and that helped keep the morning cool. Http:/ www.pierre.org/. Http:/ www.fortpierre.com/.

Back Garage: January 2008
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Friday, January 25, 2008. I asked her. "It's. not really the season.". So like any good year-round Midwestern thrifter, I prepare my short list on Thursday evenings for a Friday morning cruise of the estate sale scene. This Friday, I had just two sales on my list, neither of them that promising. But hey, in times of famine, tenacity pays off. Even if you have to drive around in this thing:. Is there a car under there? Awesome purse I didn't buy:. I've spent the last four yea...

Back Garage: Les Puces -- The Second-Hand Scene in PARIS
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2008/01/les-puces-second-hand-scene-in-paris.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Sunday, January 20, 2008. Les Puces - The Second-Hand Scene in PARIS. My recent trip to the Czech Republic by way of Paris explains my gap in blog entries. But fear not - I have returned armed with information for those savvy travelers interested in the antique scene in Paris. In Paris' northern suburbs. So it was to Les Pouces de Saint Ouen. That we ventured, to see where all this madness began. Here is their website. In case you are interested.). When we visited I was star...

Back Garage: September 2007
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Monday, September 17, 2007. But there are a certain breed of garage sale proprietors that, God bless them, get their tight-jeaned asses out of bed before 11 am to schlep their hulking mass of possessions out on the sidewalk, offering up their unique mix of vintage, cheeky, and visually stunning artifacts for the picking, and those folks, ladies and gentlemen, are the hipsters. And what possessions they have! All for a low, low price and a unique sense of irony. Then look for...

Back Garage: December 2007
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Friday, December 7, 2007. I decided to attempt Round Two of my search for appropriate attire for the Bears game, this time in Bear Country. I started out at the Salvation Army. I rarely visit this store, and once I got inside I remembered why: it's totally disorganized and smells like someone forgot to throw their McDonalds from two weeks ago away. I didn't find any. I'll re-sell this for $18.95. Are there no Bears fans in this city? After looking for a long time at that las...

Back Garage: June 2007
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Saturday, June 30, 2007. They Called It a Dirty Dig. These items are here to show us that every typical American family has some skeletons in the closet, from Aunt Agnes's hideous shell art sculpture to the actual $100 anatomical human skeleton I saw in a basement in Lincoln Square. But I mean one. Per household, and it's sitting next to a nearly-new HP printer and a dresser from Ikea. Here Ed is browsing for VHS movies, his preferred medium. A true House of VHS. I've been a...

Back Garage: August 2007
http://backgarage.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Living In Style, Second Hand. Wednesday, August 22, 2007. We now live in an era of the Garfield greeting card, the Shoebox Greeting. But there was a time when those little cardboard containers of goodwill were slightly more raunchy, more booze-infused. and generally, more bizarre. Or just too damn cute. Like these:. Posted by Back Garage. Saturday, August 11, 2007. Sometimes when I'm entering an indoor sale, I feel like I just might be walking into a Silence of the Lambs. And check out this clock:. DO le...

Living In Style, Second Hand. Wednesday, November 28, 2007. My boyfriend's grandmother prides herself on thrift. She's a bit of a hoarder, but if you ask her where she got that Cherub Novelty Candle set mint-in-box (even though she doesn't really need it), she'll happily tell you she scored it from her "favorite department store. the Salvation Army.". Paris Paint-By-Number(ish) Street Painting and Two Royal Haeger Clover-Form Ceramic Vases. Grand Total: $12.00. Source: Estate Sale, Yard Sale, Estate Sale.
