I ...I don't find this stuff in suburban Dallas. I think all the Austin people have radar and come up and grab it before the sun rises in the morning, and up in La Crosse, Wi, where my other house is, it just doesn't exist. If it does, it gets thrown in the dump when Jr. and Sissy redo Mom and Dad's place before they sell it. They have a positive aversion to mid mod up there. When I tell people what neighborhood I live in, they actually shudder. Very nice neighborhood, well kept up homes, good neighbors. But it was built IN THE 50's AND 60's. EWWW! COOTIES!!!<br /> However, when I do find things at auctions up there, I walk off with them for practically free. <br /> Haven't found anything this nice, though. Still have the bronzy-wrought irony thingy the previous owner stuck in the dining room in the 90's and the brushed nickel one in the kitchen.yossk1https://www.blogger.com/profile/16871818911485008756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3519612036484522249.post-11672711520960112542012-02-09T21:12:12.497-08:002012-02-09T21:12:12.497-08:00Fantastic!
