Life in Tee Harbor, Alaska

Garage Sale Finds...

I found some great goodies today.  One sale advertised an antique ice box, but they didn't open until 8am and they said early birds pay double.  So we went to a couple other sales first and waited for about 15 minutes for them to open.  The antique ice box wasn't what I was looking for - it wasn't even antique and they had converted it to a TV stand.  Oh well.  I did buy a burner for my Aladdin lantern for 75 cents - so it was worth a little wait.  At another sale I bought a box of camping pots and utinsels for $5 - set of nesting camp pots, a cast iron frying pan, old red oven mitt, a kitchamajig, an old wooden handled potato masher, a red enamelware dipper, and other stuff.  Definitely worth the money to me.  The sellers had used all this stuff in the early 70's when they came to Alaska - I love stuff that has history!
