Garage Finds from Dad’s Garage

Very cool.

I spent a few hours last July and August going through stuff in Mom's attic. Dad died summer of 98. Mom is 93, in assisted living. We were looking for my dad's discharge papers so we could apply to the VA for aid and assistance, based on Dad's war time service.

Found the installment contract from when Mom and Dad bought their first bedroom suite. She still has it.

Love the creeper. Reminds me of my Lisle Jeepers Creeper. I bet they have the same wheel set up.

It truly is a journey back in time going through everything. It’s not only the things my parents amassed in their lifetimes but also my grandparents and even some things from great grandparents. Not a garage find but was my grandfathers cigarette case from when he was in France and Germany during WW l. Found that in a file drawer with his discharge papers from the army.
