debrief, Laura's version

Here is the sad puzzle with Vermont missing. I love how honest yard sellers are.



Here are wonderfully friendly, and chilly, yard sellers. They were just as excited as us! Look! She even has a tool belt! This is a girl who knows how to yard sell.


This is the friendly and charming owner of the 3 labs Nancy posted 2 posts ago. This is her awesome backyard! Yard sellers are such a nice lot that they even show you their kick-butt lanscaping! I bought the wooden and rustic table made from an antique bed from her, which of course I have forgotten to take picture of. Next blog.

Here I am, hyped up on caffeine, riding the world's largest rocking horse. This is (obviously) adult-sized. It was a sight to behold. A note to those who don't know me well: I am naturally hyper and enthusiastic. I used to be called Bubbles when I was little. I rarely drink coffee, because this would be unkind to those around me, as I tend to get a teensy bit crazed with energy. For example, I am without Sam and Nan in this picture because I had so much energy I couldn't wait for them. I had to run to all the yard sales and couldn't possibly walk.





Here is Nancy, still sleepy from her night before and enjoying someone's hammock for sale. This is the yard sale where I bought the vintage Star Wars figures.
More to come.

  3. "to yard sell" is a verb. It's new. Yard selling is different from regular selling, like at a store or something.

    "to yardsale" is also a verb, but it means the act of shopping at yard sales.

    I prefer the compound word version of each: "to yardsell" and "to yardsale".
