Another visit to Murchison

 

Last week we drove up to Murchison to visit our favourite op shop. We also had lunch at one of the nicest cafes we've been to. This was my brunch; eggs benedict and bacon with a mocha.


And last time we were there just over a year ago we tried to visit the Dust and Rust vintage store but it was closed back then.


This time it was open. Sadly everything in it was a bit overpriced for my liking - I did see an old metal washing/bath tub out the front I was interested in but I wasn't going to pay over $300 for it. 


I loved everything inside though, so much to see but I'm quite picky with what I want to put in my house which was built in the 1930s and because I'm not made of money I didn't come out of there with anything.






Some of the cookie jars on the shelf look like ones that my Nana use to have when she was alive.

That brunch looks delicious 😋
I totally get not wanting to splurge at the vintage store.

Happy Monday, Amy!

The breakfast is a winner. The interior of the shop is something exclusive

My youngest daughter and her husband would love this shop but like you they like a bargain.

Very interesting store indeed but a bit to far to visit pity enough.

A pity it was all so pricey .
But you had your favourite eggs Benedict. You'll have to write a book about them around the country! I still haven't tried them but if they're ever on a menu I will order them. And let you know lol

Oh wow, I haven't been in a place like that in a long time. It's always so much fun to look around.

I'd have been fascinated at that old store!

$300 for an old wash tub! Think what I could sell my father's old farm tools for. :-)
