Diana, I live in Austin so that is where you will find the Citywide Garage Sale.

I too, LOVE antiques. I can just browse for ages through an antique store - or better yet - an antique mall. I just love to look, touch, feel, smell, old things. I have many antiques in my home, some from my mom and grandma, and some I have purchased.

And you know what! My mom doesn't like antiques either!! I think that is very interesting. I love things from my childhood, in the 50's and 60's. Yes, it feels a bit "odd" to see them in antique stores (I don't feel antique LOL!), but I really love seeing them. My mom, on the other hand, would just as soon not see any of that, "old stuff".

I just think it very interesting that so many of us love antiques, and our moms do not!
