Our youngest's graduation party is still aver 1.5 months away and I'm already exhausted from getting the house ready.
We are apparently having a garage sale in a few weeks and my assumption that it would just take a couple of days to set up was apparently severely underestimating the size of this thing.

Not exactly sure.
Yes, I got an RV pass.
Just bought one for the paved lots between hilton and JTS. Having parked in A7 for a bit, the mud after a rain made me nervous about the grass lots. Probably should have done Hilton so it would have had more tailgate space.

Prepare yourself for the aftermath. Well, unless you have a lot of kids clothing & baby stuff.

(Last year I wanted to donate everything instead of dealing with a garage sale. Hubby thought it would be worth our time to make a few $$, so...we had a garage sale. And after it was done, we made next to nothing and ended up donating 3/4 of it.)

I actually shuttered a little at the idea of holding a garage sale. "Will you take 40 cents for that widget you have marked at 50 cents?"

I am staying as clear of it all as I can.

My neighbor replace the water heater. It's been sitting on the curb since Friday. I guess they think the junk fairy is going to swing by and pick it up.

This guy was smart. He tried to change his "appearance" to evaded police. This is the guy wanted for the double homicide in Marshall County. Dude was really thinking on this one.

That's the same person in both pics? You have to be kidding me. Some sharp-eyed detective must have noticed some subtle defining characteristic.
