Some people beach comb, some people geo cache. Me? I’m a junque store junkie. Cruising the thrift stores for hidden treasures is somewhere south of a trip to the Smithsonian and north of dumpster diving.
One of my favorite places to root around is the Big Pig Thrift Store. Flanked by the famous Boeing nose cone of Bloomer’s Landing burger joint, and what I like to call the Road Warrior Museum (a pickup adorned with lots of glued-on-stuff), the Big Pig completes the Bermuda triangle of Hadlock humor in what looks like a hard luck version of the Epcot Center.
