On January 27 Barb and I hosted a karaoke party to thank some of the many people who have helped us with our auction business over the past year (and previous years) We had the party in the back room of Froggie’s. Paul Nimbar of Windsong Karaoke provided the music and a lot of our friends provided the sounds. A lot of people had a really good time and we thank everyone for their part. You can see a lot of photos on our photo gallery and at www.northfield.org. Our auction season is really starting to take off, with our next auction on February 26th at 1:00 PM in Mantorville and then the next week we will have a really good auction from the Stephen Fymbo estate. This auction will be on Saturday March 4 in the Mantorville Auction Gallery, starting at 10:00 AM.

I am getting ready for another auction in Mantorville on January 29. We had originally hoped to have it ready earlier, but it will be next week. We already have a lot of nice things (look at our gallery for more pictures). Coins, Dolls, Wanamingo advertising, handwork, antiques, and lots more coming in. Hope to see you there.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good Old Fashioned Christmas in Mantorville on Saturday, December 3. If you haven’t been to Mantorville lately, let me take this opportunity to welcome you to Mantorville Square this Saturday for an Old Fashioned Christmas. All the stores will be decorated for Christmas, freshly fallen snow decorates the streets, the sound of sleigh bells fills the air, Santa will be on hand for pictures, take advantage of the house tour, buy some candy at the Chocolate Shoppe, visit Memorabilia for antiques, go to Riverside Gifts, and stop in and say hello at Mantorville Square. Top off your evening with a visit to the historic Hubbell House and then see the play “Greetings” at the historic Opera House
