I found that Dad enjoys looking at antiques. This automatically provides us with a huge number of places to visit…awesome! I’d actually never been in an antique store before around here, but on the way back from the grocery store we decided to check one out, and spent 45 minutes looking at stuff. Dad seems to be quite discerning about the items he inspects, so it’s illuminating to witness his analytical side come out during the browsing process.

Some of the things on the list so far:

  • an oil lantern
  • hand-blown colored glassware

I was somewhat intrigued by the old tools, but don’t have any idea what I’d do with them.

    That’s really neat…I’ve also been interested in antiquing recently, so we will have to go sometime.
