Garage Sale

I attended my very first garage sale yesterday! It was a multi-family event hosted by fellow runner/cyclist/spinner Elizabeth. It was a fund raiser for Cops for Cancer - Elizabeth is involved with the Tour de Coast ride. Even though it was a rainy day at the end of November, we had quite a few customers and made some sales. There was some great stuff there - stereos, phones, kitchen stuff, games, puzzles, books, clothes, luggage, backpacks, chairs, even a friend for me! Some of the folks who were supposed to be selling their items ended up buying and trading things... I guess you can't blame them with all the treasures there. The best part was that Elizabeth arranged for all the stuff to be picked up at the end of the day so no one had to cart anything home! She's so organized!

Here I am with some of the stereos and a TV for sale.
This is the friend I met at the sale.

Run hard, be strong, have fun.
