Garage Sale

We were up bright and early to head over to Jodi and Robert's to set up for the garage sale. Well it was really just our normal time but bright and early sounds so much better. Tammy picked us up at about 0645 and we stopped for breakfast at Dunkin Donuts and Sonic.

We were at Jodi's by 0715 and the neighborhood was looking pretty sad, only one other person was setting up to sell. Usually we see more then half the houses with stuff in the driveway. Got all set up and we sat back to wait. And we waited. It didn't look like anyone was going to come. Then it was pretty strange how all morning everyone came in groups, we would have 10 - 15 people looking at our stuff and then no one would be around. Tammy found the secret to selling stuff. She would pick something up and look interested in it, put it down and someone else would pick it up and buy it. Worked a couple of time first thing and it made us feel better that we actually sold something. We all ended up doing pretty good. Most of the big stuff went so there wasn't much to bring home. I would have liked to have sold more books.

Took a tour of Robert's Pineapple Plantations, it wasn't a long tour but it was pretty impressive. The pineapples looked great. There's hope for Dan's pineapple plants, I didn't realize how long they would take to grow.


This falcon was across the street making lots of noise and then flew off and we didn't see it again.

We packed everything up at about 1130 and right about that time we got another glut of shoppers and Cheri sold a few more things. We were ready to be done with it and headed home.

Spent the afternoon doing chores and getting all caught up on the computer with back ups and clearing stuff off the hard drive.
