Day 2

                                   Well our yard sale adventure has come to a close. We really didn't do well enough Saturday to put the stuff back out Sunday. Turned out to be hotter on Saturday than it was on Friday. 93 degrees on Saturday. I would definitely say that we didn't do as well this year as we have in the past. Not complaining, we got rid of a lot of stuff. We sorted through it when we were putting things away. Some went into storage tubs in the garage, most went to Goodwill, and very little came back in the house. I mean if I wanted to bring it all back in I wouldn't try to sell it in the first place, right? Again this year the clear winner was the Boy. He made the most money!  We had a good time being together as a family. We also enjoy talking with all of the customers. Many good deals were taking place. Hope you had a wonderful weekend, too. Now to go relax and cool down!

Ummmm...... not so good

I was going to write a post about our pool. It's not huge, but it works for us. We were saying how it has been the best summer investment we have made.  Many fun times in there for the three of us. We actually got it about 3 years ago. It wasn't expensive around  $170.00. It has been wonderful. Well, this year has been a little rough on it. A few holes needed patched and a slow leak in the ring around the top that needed blown up every other day. We take it down in the fall and put it up in  late spring. We had decided we were going to replace next year. Good thing huh? This is what we returned to after our Sandusky trip. Pretty sad I'd say. It has been well used and well loved. Not exactly sure what happened. :(  Maybe after all of the water is finally out we can inspect it to see. We decided to wait until next year to replace it anyways. R.I.P. our friend. Thank you for the fun and wonderful memories.
