Foraging the antique stores

Or at least trying to.  Debbie and I went to Tulsa Saturday to check out the antique stores over there.  Man, there ain't much.  We found several listed on the www, but when we travelled to the addresses, the places were closed.  One building was actually a new Walgreens.  The original building was gone.  We found a building at another address, but it was obvious the building has not been used for many years.  Other buildings were empty or had other businesses in them.  We went to Jenks and found several antique stores.  Debbie did not find any jewelry.  I saw a few things that I liked, but the prices were outrageous.  I saw a Firestone sign priced at $2500.  I think the seller had one too many zeros and then it was still too high.  Crazy.  Anyway, got to spend time together and had a good meal at Carinos.
