So obviously what one person considers trash is another person's special find. One of the pleasures in yard saling is finding your personal treasure. It can be a sewing table with no sewing machine, a round metal object with holes for your art wall, or a great wooden toy that is environmentally friendly.
I mentioned one of the pleasures of yard saling. There are several. We enjoy meeting the sellers. For the most part, they are an interesting lot. Yard saling is in some ways a voyeuristic activity, as it gives you glimpses into another person's life, and usually this is a person you would not have had recourse to be friendly with on a daily basis. We have had men who: 1. greet us in pajamas, 2. invite us into scary basements to see tables, and 3. invite us into abandoned warehouses to see more wares.
You certainly learn your way around town, also!
