We debated about staying home. We each have projects to work on, and things to do about the yard. The responsible thing would be to stay home. Yet, the call of a few garage sales was too much.
We’re in our forties, are we still young folks?
At the second sale, the hosts were related to me. We talked about summer trips we had planned, and I bought five records for three dollars.
It was a steal. The top record in the stack was a near pristine copy of “Born in the USA.” I knew I could flip that for at least ten dollars. Probably closer to fifteen.
They also had a copy of “Nebraska.” That one is going in the personal collection. There were two Stevie Wonder albums and one Jackson Browne.
It was a good start to the day.
We hit a few more sales. I bought a couple Christmas games at one. I host a Christmas game each year at the Hinrichs Christmas. These should provide some material, at the least.
Jodi grabbed an old suitcase at one.
We closed the day out at a sale that had two boxes of CDs. The seller was our age and relating how much she loved CDs, but that she couldn’t keep them all.
Jodi and I bought about a dozen, and long with another eight or ten CDs that didn’t have cases. I’ll rip songs off all of them, and most of them will go back in the sale pile.
We made back home by 11:30, and spent the afternoon working in the yard before a late afternoon rain hit.
