Wynola Junction Antiques

Stopped here on our way out of Julian. This is a very uniquely set-​up antique shop/​antique mall with little «houses» holding different items on the grounds. One of the little houses has toys, another a gardening one. You take the items that you’d like to purchase to the main shop, which is set up like an antique mall and search for more treasures there, as well as make your final purchase at the counter. Hubby and I spent quite a bit a time here, searching every little nook and cranny (fine I was the one doing the detailed searching, but hubby liked it too). I saw some very antique garden equipment as well as an ancient washing machine. Hubby had to point that out to me; I’d never seen one. They really should start a little museum for some of the really old items; I see it as a very educational look back into past.
Antique-​ers will love this place, as will those who like unique items.

One of my favorite places for a little after work decompression. I stopped in today to see if I could find a funky little wooden chair for my back porch. I’m greeted of course by the two cats who take their job as ambassadors very seriously, and owner Tracy who had one of her baby goats with her behind the desk, which I had the honor of bottle feeding before walking around and finding the perfect little chair for $ 25. If your planning a trip to the mountains you will want to make this one of your stops it doesn’t get more Julian than this!

my boy and i stumbled upon this little gem one day after leaving julian!
this is the type of antique store where i could look for hours. loads of really cool old stuff in lots of different rooms. i believe it’s in an old house. their selection is really good and virtually untouched b/​c it’s so far out from san diego, i think. and their prices are really great as well.
the only draw back is that it’s so far away from me here in downtown san diego. definitely make a mountain day trip out of it but if you’re a lover of old odd things it’s sooo worth it.
also, i love how b/​c i signed the email list i always get cute emails for them with store updates or news like «baby goats for sale!» if only more businesses cared this much and put in the effort.
