Had a hell ride down in Hazelwood just outside of STL. I was staying in St. Peter which is about 10-15 miles away if memory serves. I spent about 14.5 hours working and driving on day #2 but day #1 was just a 5 hour jaunt down to my destination. This of course left room […]

McComb Thrift Store [McComb OH]
It has been over 2 1/2 years since I first visited (what was at that time) Community Thrift in tiny downtown McComb Ohio. Looks like it has changed names but otherwise looks the same as it always has. I wonder if my old friend Terry is still stocking the shelves. Found some interesting gems which […]
I don’t know what people think that record collecting is all about. Or being out and about and searching for records. Probably seems very much ‘on the surface’, like just sticking my mitts in those crates is all that matters. But the real peak experiences come when you supersede that stuff and hit into something […]

Asbestos crate (#4 of 4)
My girlfriend hates her kitchen floor. And now, we find ourselves here. She hated that floor and complained about it all the time. Until she struck a deal with a friend of a friend who does remodeling (and put a new roof on her house), and they came to an agreement of barter for labor, […]

D’yer Maker
My history with the Dyer Goodwill runs deep. Back before it was even fully constructed and I invited myself inside through the many polka records I have pulled out of here, and even some weird rarities I just went ahead and sold for profit. Haven’t been through since early spring so I enjoyed my trip […]
There is nothing better than being out in the middle of nowhere on vacation, with your loved ones. Better yet, stop at a quiet abondonded beach and run around in the ocean for an hour, then stop into a tiny church thrift store and look at some records! This makes (I think) the 14th year […]

Another round of a last 10 records mix with a stupendous commentary throughout and of course some technical difficulties. Enjoy.

Goodwill [Orlando FL]
I previously hit a Goodwill in O-Town back in 2015 but I’m 99% sure this is NOT the same one. Should have had better record keeping to confirm/deny that but it is all I can come up with so you’ll have to roll the dice if you are trying to use this blog as a […]
I first visited the Gibsonton/Apollo Beach area in April of 2016. On my last day I wanted to stop here but had trouble finding it. Well I ended up going back about 1 1/2 years later to work at the same place and this time I went in on my first day when I still […]

Garage Sale [Pleasant Prarie WI]
Had a horrible 5am on site starttime in Kenosha for a job that could not have gone anymore badly. Worse yet, it was finally rescheduled for completion weeks later and I could not go as I was elsewhere. My colleague went in my stead and screwed things up so royally that he had to return […]
