Yard Sale

Yes there's hope to make some cash
And get rid of stashs of trash
Running before the sun shines
Drive around putting up signs

Somebodys kid just broke a toy
Always taking less such a joy
Labels and change on the run
Enough sun and sweat I'm done!

Roger: I enjoyed your "time" remembered. I suppose most of us have spent time trying to prove: One mans trash is another mans treasure". I always have plenty of trash but few treasure hunters. It's the only experience I know of where you sell $2,000 worth of stuff for $50 in small change and feel it was a good day. Thanks again for sharing with all of us on the soup. Keep them coming. oldbuck

Every word true!! Sunburn, "Can I have this 50 cent Item for a Quarter?" Excited purchases reduced to, "Ok I guess a quarter is better than nothing." :( What's not to love?? :) Anyway, thank you very much for commenting. Roger (Pat)
