worth $25 and 1.5 hours of driving?

I would do it as long as you mean 45 minutes each way... but I am retired and have a ton of free time so I may value my time spent driving less than others.

And if you drive "efficiently" enough will you be able to cut it down to 30 minutes?

There's an older castle set in there based on the manual.

But the real question is what is going on with that high chair? Looks like the kid had it's last meal in it before graduating to a normal chair, and the parents left the scraps on it as a memory.

After careful consideration, I think it's this one. I always wanted this one, but never had it. 
Also looks like the hull of a pirate/imperial ship in there.

I thought it looked like castle. Think the brown is a pirate ship? Its the right era I guess. 

Agree on the high chair, did they not ever clean ?

That's a metal doll high chair, I remember them from childhood, what you see is rust coming through the thin white paint on the tray there.

The ship looks to me like 6274 Caribbean Clipper.

[CosmicSpeed]

They even have those plastic marble race tracks on the far left. You cant NOT get that.

I also wonder what set is in the questionable plastic bag in the bucket of Lego.

I recognize that one. It’s 6377 Delivery Center. I had that as a child and I still have it to this day. I played with that set for hours in my younger days. Great set.

Set on bottom is 722. Universal building set. The attached photo shows the side.

I don’t recognize the case, but that’s a very early art piece on the front. I wouldn’t be surprised if that case was only intended to hold the original figs.

I have that exact same case from my childhood. It holds the little 3.75-inch figures from the 80's. 

[Alpinemaps]

My bad; just realized Duke is on the case, so that’s at least third wave of the 80s Joes.

any thoughts on whats in the photo

estate sale, pricing unknown

[BrickLover80]

Ramp in front right corner and red boat hull on the left could be 6542 Seaport. One of my childhood sets.

The canyon baseplate is unique to 6584 Extreme Team Challenge.

The yellow Technic thing is 8414 Mountain Rambler

 

These sets are from early and late 90s, respectively. Looks about right when looking at the other partially assembled sets. For me, the value would be in the various baseplates, depending on how many are there. If you get lucky, there are a few 1990s sets but probably nothing of great value (that I can see).

I guess depends on pricing
