BELGIUM — Though this small village along Illinois 1 between Tilton and Westville has a population of only a few hundred people, it sees at least that many visit each month seeking treasure.
Glory Daze Auction House stages live auctions at 5:30 p.m. every Friday and 1 p.m. on the second and fourth Sundays of the month. Additional flea markets have also been occurring in warmer weather.
Doors open early so potential buyers can view the items, said Ron Pruitt of Glory Daze Antiques and Uniques.
