Shady Oaks Antiques in Panama City closing!

[Lady D]

Went over to Panama City to Shady Oaks Antiques which is at the corner of Michigan Ave. and Highway 98 only to find out they are going out of business. They had very little of their concrete items outside, had sold all of their chickens they used to have running around all over the place. This couple had taken it over about a year or two ago upon purchasing it from someone else. The man had a few things left but not much, I bought a few things. Hate to see them go. He hopes someone else will buy it and start things back up but I doubt it. We've been enjoying that place for many years, made it a point to stop in there.

I hope those beautiful old trees aren't taken down by the new owners

Darnit.... I just returned the U-Haul box truck this morning

They had a few concrete hippos left, two gray ones and a brown one, they have a hose out their mouths for a fountain. We bought a gray one several years back, last year I bought a windchime with flip flops in stained glass, hanging out on my front porch to this day. The scratching chickens were the funniest things. They had a pastel multicolor bench outside for sale still, I loved the colors, wouldn't fit in our car though, probably gone now. Oh well, ho hum. I hope the trees will not be cut down either. They are beautiful. No other place like it.

Thinking of going with a friend tomorrow but is there much left to buy? I suppose I could call but don't want to make a wasted trip if they have sold everything.

I didn't see much other than a few things on the walls of the porch of the one house and the two hippos and this nice pastel colored bench and a few things inside. All the really good stuff was gone. But they did discount the few things I did buy. It has been 12 days since I was in there and the weekend we left to come home they were only opening on weekends from there on out. If you just happen to be taking a drive that direction you might glance to see if you see any activity.
