Hi,
 Well the schools had there sale all summer long. Too many good items. But in
all thrift shops just outside Detriot I can not find the kind of Items that
W.S. has found in his thrift shops around Flint.  As for Ohio, the Dayton
HamFest used to have some Apple II items some were cheap. It just took 5-6
hours of walking and looking for them.
  Take Care
