Old Stuff

Tom worked with Tom on Friday and Saturday cleaning out this elderly woman's basement. So he got paid some money and could take what he wanted that she got rid of. So he got these tool chests that look brand new(but are full of old tools-the kind you pay at least $300 for at Sears), and this old steamer trunk. It has the woman's baby clothes and an old old baby rattle. It's neat to see. He was trying to look up the trunk online to see if it's worth anything. It doesn't have a name on it though. Not that it matters if it is worth anything, we just like the look of it. And the fact that it's really old. It still had tags on it from when the lady went to France. It's fun to just think of where it's been, the history it has. Tom said it put him in the mood to go to flea markets and look for antiques. We didn't though, he just watched Roadshow Antiques on PBS, lol.
