debriefing

So I was really late in picking up Nancy. I bring my almost 3 year old son, so I had to gather snacks, books, drinks, etc. He h.as caught on quickly to the fact that if he comes yard saling, he gets stuff. His brothers (ages 5 and 7) complain about all the haul little brother has, but don't want to come along so they themselves can score treasures.
Some of the loot today: a $1 leather tool belt for use during a super yard saling weekend (upcoming); a $1 set of 8 retro, mini record player coasters in avocado, burnt orange, and golden; a full/queen size quilt with shams for $10, and a heavy duty compass for my newly-minted cub scout for $3. The ultimate prize for me (I'll let Nancy fill you in with her treasures) was a vintage antique chicken incubator for $15. The price listed on the antique store tag (from whence it came) was $69, and the group selling it wanted $20.

  1. I have to know what Geoff thought about the incubator?! I thought about it this morning in bed and started laughing so hard!
