You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.” ~Henry David Thoreau

YARD SALE



Our town is swarming with "resorters"! Going to the store takes so much longer with all the lines and people. I think they need a "locals" line this time of year. Lots of naked people (or almost)everywhere you go. We had a yard sale this morning instead of going to the lake. Our neighbor had a huge one so we just piggy backed off her advertising and customers. Benny ended up doing it all since 99% of the people who came spoke only Spanish. You know you live in a small town when your doctor is also the guy heckling prices at his yard sale. I use the "you know you live in a small town..." quite a lot lately! So, we made over a hundred dollars and got rid of some big unwanted junk!! We will probably donate most or all of the money to the school playground fund or maybe just more junk. Atticus and Cozy did a great job selling pink lemonade until they decided to use the money to by junk at the other yard sale. That is all.

what a busy Saturday! it was mayhem here at the point... the sherif actually spent about an hour doing all kinds of walking/breathing/talking tests with a car load of girls in front of our house, and ended up taking two of them away in handcuffs.
