I must say I felt the very same way upon entering the home as you did. Overwhelmed by the amount of "things" this woman had collected. Afraid if I moved that I would break something. I too took photos, discretly. A women introduced herself to me when I said outloud "I wonder who went through all of this" she said that she had and said it was exhausting, she also stated that the rooms that we were in were the only rooms they they had gone through. They still had to go through multiple bedrooms. When I enquired as to the price of the rack of St. John Knits, the gentleman (not wearing a robe) told me I dont know they they knocked the rack down. There is a list somewhere...... I have found that all one must do is drive around these neighborhoods on a weekend and you can find the most amazing things. Thanks for sharing.

It was huge and costed something like $135. Apparently, it had been sitting there for years because the tag was turning brown and the eagle was dusty. I can't believe some of the stuff for sale that people buy. michael PS: Your blog is hillarious. I especially liked the pillows made from old jeans that was posted in May 2009.
