One of our favorite TV shows on the History Channel is “American
Pickers”. These 2 guys Frank and Mike, who have been friends since the eighth
grade travel the USA “picking junk, antiques and historical items” they
refurbish and resell. Mike’s business, Antique Archeology is located in
LeClaire, IA. Frank has his shop in Savannah, IL. In talking with the gals who
run Mike’s shop we learned that Mike and Frank are on the road 3 weeks a month
and home the 4th week. You’d be surprised at how small Mike’s shop
is and he is in the process of building another garage-like shop on the
property. The place was packed with tourists and that means about 2 dozen
folks. Mike and his wife just had a daughter recently. Though we didn’t get to
see Mike, Frank or Danielle, it was a fun stop.
