Yesterday was the long awaited city wide annual garage sale. Our small town and out lining country homes all gather together for one weekend event. There was over 30 homes on the list this year which I believe was down from last year.
This year though was not a sunny and warm event. After the major storm that felled trees, uprooted many that were well over a hundred years old, knocking limbs all over the place and closing many streets, the sale went forth.
We did have rain off and on but that did not stop most of the true blue lookers for deals. We were among those lookers. Leaving early and returning far into the late afternoon hours with our treasures in hand.
We went in different vehicles as my one daughter got a late start and a friend of the family was fooling around in his town it worked better for us just to, well ditch them and keep the deals for ourselves. haha
My daughter and son in law brought their baby Ruby ( their shepherd) and she sat in the back seat of the suburban with me. She loved every minute of barking and whining at the people and us when we left the car
Everyone got a lot of great deals. I was extremely happy as to the items that I found. Most if not all will go in my store front on eBay filling certain sections. By the end of the evening I was a very happy camper finding out that the deals I bought in fact were worth more than I had anticipated.
A very fun day for all. Despite the rain and wind
