About seven hours on Thursday unpacking boxes of collections and treasures from at least two/three generations found Pat and I tired and achy...Utmost in our minds was a hot shower and a comfortable bed to refresh and renew ourselves for another day...Friday found us back for a 5 hour stint, Pat at the "cash register" me helping other people with small purchases or packing breakables in boxes and getting them to the cars.
A huge assortment of tables set up in a shop, we spent the first day unpacking, dusting of the worst of the dust, organizing into tables of kitchen utensils, glassware, fine china, pottery, Christmas decorations, small furniture, tools, books, vintage clothes and much, much more...Then the hard part came; The pricing for a yard sale, because many of these items are quite valuable but the object of the sale was to SELL and things don't sell at yard sales for high prices...Soooo some of it was priced, most of it was make an offer...After the initial rush, things settled down and it was fun to watch people who came and some stayed for over an hour shopping, waiting for more treasures to be added to the tables...Amy ordered us burgers from the "Little Bear" drive in.
Soon we were on our way home to make appetizers for a concert at the Josephy center and crash into bed for the second night...Almost 7am this morning and we are scheduled to leave here at 7:30...So it is Hugs To All...OWAV:)
