These are just suggestions and I welcome your ideas also. Think of it as another exchange of top 10 lists. You don't have to be an economist. I'm not.

What a beautiful day today was! The fact that it rained on and off meant nothing to me. It was deliciously humid and a nice 75 degrees. I brought my sensible shoes.

Janie was able to come along on the yard sale run last Saturday. We managed 3 stops on a semi-wintery spring day, and had some luck and a few yuks.

First of all, let's take a look at what Janie and I didn't buy at the Lynnhurst Neighborhood Garage sale. Honestly, the demographics of this area are such that we didn't see that much . . .

I was busy setting up our new computer on Saturday morning, so Janie and I didn't even go out yard saling until 2 p.m. (I know, I do think I may be running a fever or something). Still, . . .
