Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
One of the best antique stores in Texas is hiding way out on the western tip of the state, just before you enter New Mexico. Whoopee Bowl Antiques features 11,000 square feet of indoor space, plus even more acreage outside. With sellers offering everything from old-fashioned potbelly stoves to collectible toy cars, the mall is truly a treasure hunter’s dream.
Located just north of El Paso in the tiny town of Canutillo, Whoopee Bowl Antiques is, at first glance, a random assortment of items strewn about on the roadside.
That isn't too far from the truth - however, the items are anything but junk. They're prized antiques, and people come from all over the world to check out the inventory.
With 11,000 square feet of shopping space, Whoopee Bowl is the largest antique mall in the area (and likely the largest in Texas).
It's truly a treasure trove - no matter what you're in the market for. Even if you have a list all ready to go, you'll probably leave with a few extra things!

Ever dreamed of cooking in a potbelly stove like people used to do way back when?
The entire property is seven acres, so you could easily spend an entire day looking around and still not see everything.
Store hours are 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday-Saturday. Visit the antique mall’s Facebook page to learn more.
