Sun's up. It's spring. I've got 8 sales identified. Granted I'll have to go 17 miles West to Edina, and then backtrack 30 miles to the northeast in White Bear Lake, stopping here . . .

It snowed all day off and on. There were piles of quite wet and heavy snow here and there. Fortunately, churches and other cultural institutions know this is the time of year to have rummage . . .

I'd need two partners, and a reasonable, old storefront in a residential area that wouldn't end up costing us more than oh, $1,500 to $2,000 a month (either to rent or own). I'm . . .

This beautiful May day is what it's all about. More yard sales were being held than we could possibly hope to go to. To further bewilder us, the gods threw not one but seven neighborhood . . .

Yesterday was just splendid. Our only concern as Janie and I made the rounds in South Minneapolis and Saint Paul's West side was having adequate hats to block the sun.

This week is the Would You Buy This or Not Road Show. On our way out to Colorado, we drove slowly this year, avoiding the interstate and going through small towns. Since we were in no hurry we stopped . . .

Yesterday it was just plain lovely out. Janie and I started at a couple of church rummage sales and then just wandered looking for signs. This is not by preferred method, but not seeing any . . .

Yesterday was one of those yard saling days that makes me wonder why I don't do this 4 days a week, 8 months a year. Ah, maybe when I "retire".
