~Our Saturday Road Trip and we found Nothing!!~

Well me and my hubby headed out early Saturday morning to the NC mountains to deliver a table out of my booth to a buyer in Asheville. He had been on vacation all week and was about to go stir crazy from being home... I had to post this picture first.... we were on our way home in a one stoplight town, (look at the empty street to the left) I had to have him turn around to confirm what I think I saw, it sure was what I thought, we stopped just long enough to snap this picture... they were in full operation.. BEHIND the building but from what I could tell I don't think many men would want to stop to say the least NO car wash for us.!! Consider how the sign looks and that is how the washers looked !!!! I wish I could have got a picture. Just what we all want , An Old Fashioned Hamburger and a Bikini Car Wash...well maybe not!


Oh how I loved this old building.... Isn't it great, notice the Comapny Store 1890 painted on the old bricks. I think it has seen it better days. Of course I wanted to peek inside ...so we headed on up, yep big old rat ran right across the end of my foot (of course open toe shoes on!!) not much was left, would have not dared to go inside for the fear of falling through right to the basement. Just makes me sad to see such a neat place just forgottten.

Finally..... once out of town away from all the pricey Fancy Smanchy shops, I knew I had hit the King Junk of all junk shops well.....

Looks like the perfect junkin spot, right???? Well that was not the case. The sweetest little old country couple met me at the door and asked if I would like for them to unlock the second building as well, I was so excited and all that came out was un huh..... Well a few seconds later my husband pointed out the price on this old trunk $175.oo!!! You know the ones we find all the time for under $10 bucks.... it was then time to get on out of there.

Everyone remember Dirty Dancing?? This is the gorgeous view as you come into the town Lake Lure, NC where it was filmed. It has been years since I have been there. It is still a major tourist spot, one of the cutest towns ever, full of white water rapids, everyone just pulls off the road and hops in and makes a day of it!! I hate I did not take more pics, but me and hubby were yapping away too busy to see what we could get into next. There were a few little Antique shops here but they were closed... imagine that, I guess they took advantage of the beautiful day as well!!

I could not beleive that these things were my only finds for the day !!!! Of course my husband thought it was fabulous!! I think I spent a whooping $35.25!!!

These were some old number stamps I came across....had to have these, I think they will make some cool pendants.

Thanks for stopping by to visit, I hope everyone has a Blessed week, the weather is going to be beautiful.. get outside and have fun..... I have gotten so wrapped up in work and my shops that I had forgotten what it was like to have a day of doing nothing but enjoying the beauty that God has given us, what a great day. Well I am off to dedicate some overdue time to my yard, we have stockpiled up the flowers , pine needles, potting soil, and anything else we have missed. Hopefully I will get some pics out there when we are done!!!
