Inside Garage Sale USA #1 and how we got there

ABOUT OUR JOURNEY TO SEE
GARAGE SALE, USA

This photo shows a closeup of the old bottles, plus some neat old lamps, glass items, and fake fruit.

We looked for this store near Shelburn, Indiana and were terribly disappointed not to find it. We thought it had gone out of business.

Well... we asked a couple of people there and found out that they had moved to Linton. We drove some miles to find this store again - and it was totally worth it.

Bob was closing the store, but opened it up for us. He was so nice! We quickly looked around. I found some antique paper dolls and some playing cards. But we hurried so he could leave. I can't wait to go there again.

"I have other stores," Bob told us, "and one got flooded." Luckily, he didn't lose a lot of inventory.

Here is information from their business card:
