Old-school antiques, diner on Route 66

 



People frequent the site of the former Livingston Community Consolidated High School in Livingston, Illinois, not for study but for shopping.

The old high school is now The Pink Elephant Antique Mall on Historic Route 66.

It has “antique furniture, jewelry, collectibles, glassware, memorabilia, candles, home goods and home décor.”

During a particular holiday, the fudge factory made fudge with sprinkles and ghost peppers!

 


Fun. Hot!
