Digging Through The Crates - Vinyl's

There are a ton of antique shops downtown dells, this was the only one open because the seasons are changing and no one comes to the dells towards fall & in the winter.....If the others would have been open we could have spent 1 or 2 full days digging through the crates.
Crates & Crates of Vinyl's at an antique shop in downtown dells
Some antique war memorabilia in one of the shops
Digging for them rare/weird looking records
1 by 1 we go through each vinyl...gotta find some good ones to sample, U KNO!!!
Yea, I'm a little surprised by the # of records in this place
Wayside rest in WI on our way back to the Twin Cities, MN

So these are some of my shots of Reedsburg, WI...Its about 10-15 minutes out from the dells. It's a town of 9,000 some people, pretty small but it was nice to visit..The one good thing we did find here in this town was a music/video game/movie store where there was crates and crates of records...
