I have seen art items of this quality for sale at many places: Santa Fe and Taos New Mexico, the store in the Heard Museum in Phoenix, the store in the Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis- (two premier Native American art museums in the world) and if you were to slim down their offerings to the "best of the best", you could compare it to this store, , Not Just Rugs in Bloomington, Indiana. Navajo rugs, Santa Clara black pottery and other high-quality hand made ceramics, beautifully made Kachina dolls, amazing jewelry from many reservations. Don't miss this store if you are an admirer of this work.

I get compliments all the time on my turquoise jewelry and send people there. The owner has lived in the Southwest and knows people there and goes twice and year. He visits the reservations and purchases all kinds of things from the locals he knows. You can buy all the items in this store for less than you would if you visited like a store in Albuquerque, NM.

Who would ever think touring a sock factory would be interesting? Well, it really was neat.

Go to the corporate office - the brochure does not say that - check in and browse the gift shop. All they have is socks but you cannot believe the variety. The socks are NOT CHEAP - $5 TO $9 a pair - but they are of excellent quality. There is any domestic animal you can imagine, sea and wild life, all the sports teams, silly socks (Jim's Sock with Jim's Other Sock) and all sizes. Our tour started with a history of the family business and a demonstration of their first sock machine. Our guide, Kinsey, answered all my questions. There were only three of us on a Wednesday tour in January. We walked the factory floor and you cannot imagine how cool the weaving machines are. We saw the storage room an there were hundreds of college and professional team socks. It isn't just the weaving that is interesting. They wash, iron, pair, tag and bag the socks. You see the process from start to finish. The tour was an hour and is well worth the $6 and the time.

The Totem Post is, quite simply, a Nashville, Indiana icon. It first opened in 1952 and was one of…read moreonly five shops in town. It is still in the family of founding owners Bill and Marielle Jockey as their daughter now owns it. Open year-round, The Totem Post offers authentic Native American jewelry, crafts, moccasins, knives, ethnic gifts, silver, and copper jewelry. The Totem Post folks are without fail friendly and I'm pleased to report that the shop itself is surprisingly wheelchair friendly (not always true in Nashville). A lot of the items at The Totem Post have a sense of spirituality to them and the times I've visited it has felt like a bit of a respite to even enter the establishment. The store has a bit of a fun origin story. The Jockeys were dancers on the SS. Uruguay who visited family in Indianapolis. During the visit, they were taken to Nashville, Indiana. Not long after, the leathercraft establishment went up for sale - The Jockeys moved forward and bought the place and quickly began establishing themselves among Native American and South American communities so they could carry high quality yet affordable items. While Nashville has certainly grown larger than those five shops from 1952, The Totem Post remains a local favorite and a tourist destination. I seldom, if ever, visit Nashville without a stop here.

Fallen Leaf…read moreBooks is wall-to-wall reading materials of all types: children's books, Western paperbacks, cookbooks, fiction, non-fiction, magazines, all of the things. This is the place where you'll find some used treasures, but also new books and and some rare and collectible books. Whenever I visit a new bookstore, I gravitate to the children's section. This bookstore has lots of children's books, from picture books to graphic novels. I saw some ancient Nancy Drew novels, with original covers. I'm not a Nancy Drew head, but I can appreciate a vintage mystery collection when I see one. One of the best things about Fallen Leaf Books is that they leave (leaf?) you the eff alone. I don't remember if anyone greeted me or talked to me, and frankly, I don't care. All I need in a bookstore is books and cozy nooks and quietude, and that's what you'll find here.
