The Save a Pair Yard Sale and Tractor Show

Super Sunday Savings Thanks to:

Neighbor Bob and Cathy for keeping the children (my parents) occupied with dominoes all day.


It was an epic game that continued through two sales breaks, one lunch break and three moves out of the sun.

Grandma for buying 25 cent books I would have just given her.
The Dude who bought my dad's bow and arrows, partly because he also donated a few bucks to the handy donation jar but mostly because he took away the bow and arrows.


He even got a lesson before he took them home.

The scary old man whose creepy voice gave him the Please Go Away discount on everything he bought.
That guy who bought the desk, a guitar and a whole bunch of other crap to the tune of $28 and said, "Keep the change for the charity" after handing me $40.
The lady who took away the duvan. We're been trying to figure out what to do with that thing for years.
To the lady who donated a bunch of crap she didn't want anymore.




To the neighbors for donating a bunch of their own crap and still buying stuff.

And to Mom and Dad for being good sports and manning the market at 7:50 a.m.--about an hour before it started--even though I was still blissfully asleep. We did good, kids.
