Doin' my own "Pickin"

Headed south of homebase to an 1853 location, in the middle of nowhere. JD Rockefeller built a Standard Oil Pumping Station, it's currently under private ownership BUT the owner is gearing up to sell the place (5 historic buildings and 2 other buildings plus the land).

Anyway...he asked if I'd be interested in selling some of the goods he's collected over the years.

What treasures! Wow:)

Re: Doin' my own "Pickin"

Sarcasm? well, kind of. They had an episode on "American Pickers" where the girl in the office called a glass top pump an "invisable pump". I guess you had to be there, eh? :D
 
Re: Doin' my own "Pickin"

LOL..I did a search and that came up as one of the results...so that's why I thought you were making fun of ME.

I saw that episode and got a kick out of that. :D But the funny thing is, last week I was out and about knocking on doors and saw one of those pumps in a back yard near a barn! :o Couldn't track the owner down though... :-\
