A HUNTING WE WILL GO


Last week I posted about our new little beauty that we are so enjoying, but this week I wanna tell you what's even more fun then listening to our new records....finding them.

There are not many places around these parts that sell records, and old ones at that. So Saturday morning Dominic woke me up and declared that today we were going on a scavenge hunt for records. We hit a couple spots we thought for sure would have some but nope, but then we went to our local flea market and hit the jack pot, the mother load if you will.  We found this guy who had tons and tons of records....the only problem was you really had to dig. Like you had to move boxes around and move stacks of crap just to get to them.



The guy was really cool and let us stay there for hours looking and digging and moving crap around to look through all the boxes (which we only got to about half of them - so guess where we will be this weekend?).

After we made a pile of what we wanted the guy would get out his book and look up all the prices and then would sell them to us for 75% off the book price...most of them were only about $1 or $2  which was totally cool with us. But see that Fats Domino record...well that one was listed in the book for $100 and the guys knew Dominic really wanted it so he gave us a great deal on it and let me tell you it made that whole day all the more fun for the both of us.



While walking around the flea market I spotted this old 1910 Whiskey box that I knew we had to have to store all of our new finds and I am totally in love with it and it looks so cool sitting next to the record player holding all of our new treasures.

This is just a 100% fun adventure! Love the box to store the records and the whole scavenger-hunt-togetherness thing you've got goin on!
