spindle spider dot comOn my way into town after stopping at New Life in Wyoming I just wanted to head to my hotel but I drove right by this place, so I got my swerve on and tore into the parking lot. This was a unique Goodwill….you could almost see whatever business it used to be before they […]
Up in GR for three weeks in a row and I continued my tradition of stopping in a single store before heading to K-Zoo. First up was SA, next was St. V’s and now another new one I had somehow previously missed. To prevent another bummer, I called in advance to assure they had some […]
I forgot to get a simple exterior shot so I held up traffic on my way out and snapped this one through the van. I had purposely held out on stopping at Satellite on my previous trips to K-Zoo as I knew I’d soon be back. A comfortable store; it did not disappoint. After some […]
As I did last week when I found myself in the same neck of the woods, I figured I’d hit a single GR thrift store before I headed to K-Zoo. So I busted out the trusty Google Maps to figure out what was closest or most convienent – I’ve essentially been to them all already. […]
In my first night staying in K-Zoo instead of GR (in two days trip #3 will be on the books), I was delighted to find good food (Schwarma King), booze (Drake Party Center) and Green Light Music all next door to one another – and all just a couple miles from my hotel. I opted […]
I’ve torn up Grand Rapids a number of times as I’ve made many trips there over the years. I was headed up yet again and had some serious problems finding a hotel (I must admit, I am particular with where I will stay) so I booked in Kalamazoo instead. I was due to complete my […]
Shook my hangover and headed out to greet the day Sunday morning. gsalr.com had only two sales anywhere in the area with records and they were in opposite directions. Not being ambitious enough to try and hit both, I chose one on the north side and headed out around 10am. Just a bunch of the […]
This was SUPPOSED to be a post about the All-Night Flea Market, and how it was my third year going, and how exciting it was and all the great stuff I picked up. But it is not, because the flea market was a bust. I got some intel a couple hours before we were set […]
On my last trip back from Naperville I hit up a nearby antique mall. This time things were running a bit late and I was eager to get home so I just went about a mile to the nearby Goodwill. It was mobbed but I made my rounds, as usual. Seemed like the entire Kenny […]
There is truly nothing better than an impromptu garage sale on a Sunday morning, and one so close you can ride your bike there. The weather was perfect and I did not even have a hangover as I was so tired the night before I only made it through about three beers. I did make […]
