Even though it's great getting out on the road, 2 weeks on the road is a long time...
Anyway, here's a few things I brought home...
There were some things I had to pass on due to location and just plain wouldn't fit in the trailer ! ! !

Ah, now THAT is the way a vacation should be. Don't understand why one would go to Disneyland, Grand Canyon, etc., spend all that money and come back with nothing. At least you came back with something, nice job.

Wow, very nice picks! All machines look to be in excellent condition.  What state did you start in and what states did you hit to get this number of machines?

Thanks everyone!

Truth be told, half of the items were paid for and awaiting pickup or my uncle's stuff I'll be restoring; the other things I did pick up here and there but since I had so much stuff to pack into the trailer, I couldn't/wouldn't buy because I did not know when I would be able to come back through some areas... Rest easy though, it hurt me too! But there wasn't anything I could not live without or find somewhere else more easily accessible...

Personally, I really like the Tom's Peanuts/Sandwiches Vendor as it is original 5 cent w/o mods to 10 cents and all decals are 5 cents as well. Original matching locks but I have to have a key made... If anyone happens to have a Tom's "WFX" key, contact me please!

We traveled just over 3800 miles from Fla. through eastern Tenn. and spent several days looking at property and potential areas to relocate/move to. Then on to Pitts., Pa where I delivered Brian's(Seven181) Embossed 7-Up VMC 149, visited Joe Winterbottom and then Curtis in Hagerstown, MD... From there we headed over to visit family north of Philly for a few days and then down to VA to visit more family... Headed to Charlotte, NC to drop off one of my daughters to stay with a friend for a couple of weeks and now I'm home...  Sorry for the boring details...

Love the lollipop scales!!  I have been wanting to find one of those for a while now.  Did they come from the same place or did you track them down separately?
