Exploring Downtown Antioch
Ethan had a volleyball tournament in Antioch this morning. Since there was about 1 1/2 hours before his next game, we went to each brunch. We found this great diner, The Vault, that was reasonably priced and gave you lots of food. A few doors down was the Village Thrift Store, and of course, we had to go. I found a vintage rose pattern tablecloth for $3.99. The tag said AS IS, but there was nothing wrong with it. Austin found a Star Wars lightsaber, that worked, for $1.99. We stopped at a store next door that was higher end stuff, and he had some vintage tablecloths for about $25.00. The rose tablecloth I got was a steal! I just soaked it in Oxy Clean and it looks great. The Village Thrift Store had a lot of stuff packed into it. There was even a section for Retro Clothes. You do need some time to look through this store. I'm sorry that we only had about 20 minutes to run through it. It was a nice find.
