Now or Never / Rearranging History
Do you remember this?
On your left when you enter the store, you would have seen this section. Well, George has been saying:
I’ll be moving the shop around so that I can put the
George Wagner of Bahoukas Antique Mall
Havre de Grace History MuZeum in the front of the store.
It is NOW happening! Yep, if you stop by you’ll see the challenge George has set out for himself. To make room for his treasured Burns Carriage and to move all the Havre de Grace History MuZeum to the front of the store, lots of things need to be moved … carefully!
If you’ve been in the shop, you know that ‘space is at a premium!’ Adding more cases, like this one means that whatever was moved needs a space…
The ‘betting board’ is from McLhinney’s building. Moving on… (oops, no pun intended)
The above photo is the next area on that left wall for local history memorabilia (including that grand collection on the right featuring the Sanborn maps). Below is the section following the one above that will require major reorganizing.
So Where Did the ‘Stuff’ Get Moved to?
Now you know that is the challenge! There is definitely no ’empty space’ to maneuver. But, in this scenario, George is a genius. Yep, I know. We listen to him and his ideas, roll our eyes, and often, hold our breaths. But the toys from the front left are being moved to the toy section in the right aisle about halfway back.
Then the challenge is how to incorporate all that was in the toy section with the new items! This led to rearranging the toy section and adding another case and different shelving.
And this is just the beginning…
The odds are that even more has been shuffled about. If you want to enjoy the changes, stop by frequently. If you want to browse and shop, Please Forgive The Mess!
It’s exciting. And remember, we’re here… and we’re watchin’ for ya!
