Going to pass through Madison Indiana in a week or two. Any good places to hunt for old tools or just a good place to eat and something to do.

Dave,
We went through there about 9 months ago as an alternative to the Freeways. Great History! I believe a major movie was filmed there back in the 1950's w/ Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. As we traveled through town it looked like there were some nice antique shops and small restaurants. Being right on a major river between two states, there is bound to be some interesting used equipment shops nearby. Have fun.

Thanks
When I was there a lot of things were blocked off along the river for the Regatta. Forgot about that going on the 4th weekend.

off of I-65 there is an indoor flea market. Exit 76. Full of old tools. Little out of your way, but I promise, worth the trip
Little out of the way for Madison but a good day trip from Cincinnati. Thanks for the info.
Here is a link for anyone interested.
