We met Danielle when we were in LeClaire just over a year ago. She now has her own store, just across the street from theirs...sells antique jewelry, vintage clothing, etc.
I watch American Pickers and didn't know Danielle opened her own store - don't recall that ever being mentioned on the show.

Just amazes me how they make a living doing what they do - guess they sell a lot of stuff on their web site.

Cut my face up with a chain saw some years ago. 50 or so stitches( small ones). I was very lucky. Cut my chin, looked like somebody opened it up with a zipper. After all said and done I had a beautiful red tee shirt.Looked like someone threw a bucket of red
paint on the front of it.

It is amazing how a cut on the face will bleed!

Grayfox I am trying to wait for beer thirsty.....hmmm it is after noon already! I just finished putting up that Mylar insulation in the rig windows.....oh my freaking word it is a hot one out....I hope to see and feel a difference in here soon! Even had to cover the shower overhead window...heat pours in there! I had enough out of the roll to do all windows except the loft and the one window in the bedroom.

The install was easy....just cut to fit! I don't have it taped as I don't want sticky on the window frames. It stays in perfect, and pull down the shades you can't tell. Except now we have to turn the lights on cause it darkens it up big time!

RVC, thanks. Do you have factory tinted windows as well? Were you able to by the Mylar in various levels of tint? If so what did you use?

Just finished mowing my 1.48 acres of weeds and 20 sq. ft of grass. Too hot to do weed eating and besides that, I'm too lazy.
