Tag Sale!


Missy and Barry Keeping Cool Posted by Picasa

Well, we've had our very first tag sale. Our neighbors, Rick and Judy, decided to "cull the herd" of their overstocked house, and graciously invited the neighborhood to join in. So, we put some stuff that we knew we wanted to sell and added it to the impressive collection of items for sale. In addition to Rick & Judy, Todd and Missy also joined us with a bunch of stuff for sale, too. It was hot, but not as bad as last week, and we were able to keep cool (the wine coolers broke out by 10:00 am - hey - it was noon somewhere in the world).

We were joined by Rick & Judy's daughter Amber, along with her daughter Alexandra, by mid afternoon, and finally ajourned to their backyard about 4:00 to enjoy a cookout. Eventually, we were joined by Amber's husband Greg, then our neighbor Jean before we headed home for a nap. An excellent day!

Check out the pictures!

New Driveway


New Driveway Posted by Picasa

Well, the picture is finally here. I've been procrastinating about getting it on the site, but no more! We had it done in May, and have loved every inch of it. There's nothing like heading up a smooth, level stretch of asphault over a bumpy, dusty gravel driveway. And it eliminates the whole raking the gravel out of the lawn syndrome in the spring - I NEVER want to do that again!!!
