I SAW THEM CLOSE UP EARLY ON SATURDAY 8/30 AS I WAS WALKING TO THE DOOR!!! 20 mins early!!! An old man with glasses, a guy with short black hair and glasses, and a chubby short old lady with short hair. We drove all the way from Vegas, got caught at the other shops but thought we had until 5 as their hours are listed as such.

I could spend large amounts of time walking through history in the large amount of booths here. I know, I know. I've used the word "large" a few times. But it's the only way to verbally capture the size and selection. The only words to describe the owner: the best. He's honest, caring and will take the time to make sure your experience here will warrant a return. If any store is going to get your time, make sure this one makes the list. It...

You'll like this shop. Plenty of vendor spaces with cool antique items, and some vendors having great discounts too.
I arrived at 3pm, the antique shop(s) were busy but no line to wait in. However, Covid rules are inplace.
