Ms P’s Oddities

Patrice Goulet has lived in Colfax for 65 years. She was the school secretary who knew every kid’s name. She opened Buzz Thru Drive Through in 2000 and ran it for nearly a decade before selling it. She spent fourteen years running a vehicle licensing consulting company before retiring. Three successful businesses built in this town over the course of a lifetime spent here.

Ms P’s Oddities is the fourth chapter — and by her own description, the most personal one. This is a passion project, not a pivot. Patrice has always loved the art of collecting — the hunt, the find, the moment a piece that was overlooked somewhere gets a second life in the right hands. Her favorite part isn’t the acquisition. It’s watching a customer’s face when they discover the exact thing they didn’t know they were looking for.

That’s the shop she built. Antiques, curiosities, and one-of-a-kind finds for your home and garden — sourced by someone who has been a part of this community longer than most of its current residents have been alive, and who knows the difference between something worth keeping and something worth passing on.

Colfax raised Patrice. Now she’s giving something back to it… Again!
